MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2012 Sep 12

Observer(s): Jules Halpern
Institution(s): Columbia U.

Instrument: Modspec/Templeton

No Observing (see comments below)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   High Humidity all night.

Observing Summary:

Even though the sky is clear, the humidity is consistently 
over the limit, although it's hard to tell exactly what
the value is.  The weather station is reading 87% while
the AC computer reads 93% in the dome.  Yesterday the
weather station read 97% when it was clearly 100% by 
inspection.  The Kitt Peak telescopes are closed, too.

I'm giving up the night at 2:00.

Since the telescope has not been used since Saturday,
I let water out of it by tilting it to the north.
