MDM Trouble Report for 2003 Sep 12

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Scaife, Terndrup (OSU)
Instrument: 8K

Problem(s) Encountered:
About midnight, the  Ambient dome temperature  reading on
the mirror A/C PC began giving crazy values.  The reading
fluctuated wildly, mainly around values like +200C.  This
resulted in warnings that the dewpoint was higher than the
mirror temperature.  The other temperature readings were OK,
and the humidity was ~55%, so we kept observing.  About
an hour later the reading stopped being funny and went back
to normal.  No time was lost.
