Cool, in moderate cirrus overcast, light southeast wind.  Temp=46F.


DPMON COMMENT: Wed Sep 21 17:00:15 GMT 1994
Dome and Plessey power left on overnight.  Coude bench was left in
slew mode so it did not rotate, fortunately.

In hole on cirrus, may be clear.

Thin cirrus in the hole.  Will not start MKIII at this time.


DPMON COMMENT: Wed Sep 21 17:46:53 GMT 1994
Forgot to turn clock drive for Coude bench back on after trimming angle.

COMMENT: Wed Sep 21 18:17:16 GMT 1994
Closing dome shutter so that I can do some paint scraping while
cirrus overcast continues.  Will keep one eye on the sky for
possible holes in the cirrus.

Cirrus appears to be thinning.  Reopening dome.  Will begin taking 
data to tape.  Holes in cirrus may pass into FOV in a while.

WEATHER COMMENT: Thu Sep 22 00:04:16 GMT 1994
Orographic clouds now moving upslope in West.  Will pass into
FOV a few minutes.  Still waiting for a hole in cirrus large 
enough to get MKIII coronal scan.


WEATHER COMMENT: Thu Sep 22 00:10:32 GMT 1994
Orographic clouds now blocking FOV.


COMMENT: Thu Sep 22 00:25:17 GMT 1994
Stopping obs at this time.  In heavy orographic and cirrus cloud 
cover.  Appears it will remain so for quite a while.  Will take 
this opportunity to begin painting Alice's famous porch.

WEATHER COMMENT: Thu Sep 22 02:27:10 GMT 1994
Orographic clouds have receded.  Cirrus still lingering.  In the 
thinnest portion of cirrus now.  Will restart Dpmon to see how things
look.
