----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mauna Loa Solar Observatory Observer's Log ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Jul 21 15:36:41 GMT 2017 Year: 17 Doy: 202 Observer: waters WEATHER COMMENT: waters: Fri Jul 21 16:28:45 GMT 2017 Temp 44F with windspeed at about 12-17 mph with gusts up to 23mph from the South. The wind may be higher than that as our building blocks the anemometer we get our readings from. The sky is clear; however, there have been some rouge puffs of fog over the observatory originating from a fog bank to the Southeast. Going to delay opening the dome for now. ___end___ Fri Jul 21 17:28:19 GMT 2017 SGS Alignment complete Fri Jul 21 17:29:39 GMT 2017 CoMP occulter has been re-centered Fri Jul 21 17:31:48 GMT 2017 Kcor Focus/alignment program exited Fri Jul 21 17:31:19 GMT 2017 COMP Start Patrol on cookbook: synoptic-00010.cbk GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Fri Jul 21 17:31:27 GMT 2017 Wind has calmed down a bit and the fog bank has burned off.The top shutter isn't up all the way to help keep the spar from shaking.
