I also gently got the water off the outside lens with a kimwipe. While I was there, I looked for a replacement 9volt battery to replace the smoke alarm with. Turns out out of the two spares that I found, only one seemed to be full. Will need to get spare 9volts for future chirping. ___end___ GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY waters: Tue Feb 19 02:21:53 GMT 2019 Unfortunately, today was a wash; high winds in the morning made it dubious, if not impossible to open the dome and take data and by the time it calmed down, mist, cloud and rain were upon us. If it does ice over tonight, becareful in the dog house, as it still leaks when it rains. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: waters
