MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2009 Jun 30 Observer(s): R. Mark Wagner Institution(s): Ohio State University Instrument: Direct + Echelle No Observing (see comments below) Bad weather most of the night. No equipment or software problems were encountered. Seeing and Weather: Very bad weather from 1930 until 2300. Observing Summary: Like last night a strong thunderstorm moved over the site around sunset and continued until at least 10:30 PM. There was intense lightening and rain. Lightening shutdown procedures were followed before the storm began. I took the next observer, Mark Reynolds, through the procedures in case he needs to shutdown during his upcoming run. Skies had not cleared by 2 AM. Satellite showed extensive cloud cover over the region and I decided to call it a night. ------------------------------ Submitted on 2009 Jul 1 [2:13:28]
