Observing Summary:

We opened at sunset and had good clear weather for most of the night, with no
signs of smoke as far as we could tell. 
Around UT~10 we noticed cirrus starting to come in, illuminated by the moon, 
which about doubled our exposure times. We continued to see guide probe issues
and the dome got stuck at the end of the night again.
