MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2012 Aug 30

Observer(s): Rhiannon Griffin
Institution(s): University of Oklahoma

Instrument: OSMOS

Worked for 2 hours (part of the night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds all night.
   Beg: Overcast, Winds Calm
   Mid: Patchy Clouds, Winds Calm
   End: Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

The evening started off cloudy and rainy, but was only partly cloudy 
by midnight, then became mostly clear.  I started to observe and
noticed the effect (extra noise in the images) seemed different/
worse than before, although maybe it was due to cloud/moon?  
I tried taking a few images and the effect didn't seem constant (and thus
would be hard to reduce the data),
so I decided to not observe for very long.
