MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2014 Nov 24

Observer(s): R. Mark Wagner
Institution(s): OSU

Instrument: OSMOS

Worked for 9 hours (most of the night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   High Winds all night.
   Beg: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 1.9 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Moderate
   End: Seeing 3+ arcsec, Cirrus, Winds High

Observing Summary:

Night was characterized by cirrus and moderately high winds.  They were quite
variable ranging from about 10 mph up to 38 mpg.  Around 01:00 am the winds
seemed to shift around to the SE from the NE and the seeing blew up to 3-4
arcsec.  I closed at 3:10 am with the wind above 30 mph and the bad seeing was
taking me nowhere.  First half was pretty good except for the cirrus.  I did complete
my highest priority imaging/photometry object for the block.  No trouble to report.
