*Observing Plan*
 
# Afternoon calibrations
# standards
# ObsTac
# End of night calibrations
 
*Conditions*
 
# Cotton everywhere, with sprinkles of blue. clouds moving slowly.
 
*Accomplishments*
 
# Afternoon bias and flats, expnums 353373-353481
# Beginning of night standards
** none, too many clouds
# ToO: NEOWISE N2014B-0071
** expnums 353490-353494; no stars or earth killers in the images, just clouds
# Obstac started at 7:30pm local time
# Wide survey: r, i, z, Y exposures all useless due to clouds
# Closed for clouds at 10:34pm local time
# David James contacted to begin DECal i- and Y-band filter scans at 10:34pm local time
# Details of DECal scans are in elog #232466
 
*Problems*
 
# None
 
*Notes for data management*
 
# Do not process 353593-353598
 
*Other*
 
# Lots of clouds all night.  Another great night for DECal scans!
