---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===---

        Snow Removal!

---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===---


Did not open due to weather and leaking telescope.

Telescope was not moved *at all* tonight, absorbent pads still in place from 
last night.

As of now, generator is on, no utility power.

---=== OBSERVING LOG ===---


Afternoon:
-----------

00:09Z   We have at least a foot of snow on the ground and high winds.  The    
         clouds may clear up.  We also still have the glycol problem, and      
         cannot move the telescope.  Note:  The mcpMenu came up unavailable.

00:15Z   restarted servers

00:22Z   All actors present and accounted for, and all happy.

00:27Z   sp1 temp=  -119.6C, -99.6C   sp2 temp=  -121.5C, -101.6C


Night:
------

00:35Z   hub startNubs mcp followed by mcp info returned "mcp not connected"   
         so we're checking the laptop at the telescope.

00:41Z   Power went out.  Utility is trying to take over, but it's not stable.

00:58Z   Checked guages.  Chillar pressure and telescope cooling system both 0

00:59Z   Power flicker, new snow seems to be falling.

01:35Z   spectro temps ok

01:47Z   mcp problem solved:

ctrl +x     to reboot the mcpMenu
enter
soft   (repeat with hard if it doesn't work)
when mcpMenu comes back, hub startNubs mcp
mcp info

01:53Z   Power flicker

02:37Z   spectro temps ok

03:23Z   Power flicker

03:35Z   spectro temps ok

05:02Z   spectro temps ok

05:38Z   spectro temps ok

06:29Z   Power out for few seconds

06:39Z   Power flicker

06:39Z   spectro temps ok

07:32Z   spectro temps ok

08:27Z   spectro temps ok

09:28Z   spectro temps ok

10:27Z   spectro temps ok

11:06Z   Power out for ~ 30 sec before generator came/stayed on

11:40Z   spectro temps ok

12:33Z   spectro temps ok

12:55Z   endNight finished, and there was much rejoicing.  Yay.

13:08Z   All guages same as this afternoon.
