APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday February 24, 2003 (MJD 52695) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- swing: Jurek Krzesinski night: Dan Long, Steph Snedden ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! (but looking at the sky, we know better...) ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The weather got us yet again. We're batting .000 ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon checkout: DAs - ok., guider camera ok. Spectrographs focused at temperature: 3 C. All are now in spec (see the problem section). Night: We could not open at sunset because of clouds and precipitation in the vicinity. We then had flurries followed by high humidity. We never opened. The weather has gotten us every night, so far.
