MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2022 Jan 11

Observer(s): John Thorstensen
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: OSMOS + B4K

Worked for 11 hours (most of the night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 3 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 2.5 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Moderate
   End: Seeing 2.5 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds High

Observing Summary:

High clouds around all night. They were fairly heavy at start so
I delayed opening for a while; then the sky was milky under a 
bright moon, but the clouds were not opaque.  Finally the sky 
was mostly clear.  I was able to work all the time I was open 
without losing guide stars.  Seeing was mediocre, generally 
around 2.5 arcsec, but never terrible.  The wind kicked up
later in the night.  So overall, not a great night, but usable
for brighter targets, and I made a fair amount of hay.
