Started night closed due to dust count. But sky is partly cloudy (stratocumulus) after a very cloudy day. Humidity is 46%. Present for observing tonight are (APOGEE team) Majewski, Schiavon, Beland, Holtzman, Mike Haydn, Wilson, and (observers) Stephanie, Kaike, and Viktor. Temperatures for instrument: Cam-adft=78.5, detpole-top=75. Starting the night with some test exposures to get the collimator focus position.
