*Observing Plan*

#Standard Bias and Dome Flat sequence
# evening Standard stars
# Start ObsTac (Expecting gri band until SN fields up)
# Hand off to Community Observers at 11:15 CLT
# Take over from Community Observers at 4:15 CLT
# Restart ObsTac
# morning standards

*Conditions*

# Afternoon: Mostly cloudy, but forecast shows strong likelihood of complete clearance
# Earliest part of night had poor seeing as did most of the second half. 
# Rest of night conditions pretty good, seeing around 1 arcsec
# Some clouds popped up for the SN-S2 observations

*Accomplishments*
# Afternoon: zeros done, (ugrizYVR) dome flats done, checked, OK, GPS Monitor Skyplot checked
# Evening standards  SDSSJ1442-0005, E6-A, E8-A
# aTmCam checked.
# Early night : Obstac started,  Tried Y band then realized seeing(~1") is good enough to do some g,r,i sequences
# Went outside, saw stars. 
# Around 22:00 CLT, switched to z, Y. Possibly due to a few poor seeing exposures in g and r. Seeing does degrade slightly to ~1.2" 
# Wind Screen raised to 45 degrees at 22:30 CLT. Windspeed has hovered around 13 mph
# Around 22:30 CLT  Obstac returns to g, r, i sequences. Seeing returns to ~1"
# Handoff to Community Observers at 23:15 CLT
# Takeover from Community Observers at 4:15 CLT
# Windscreen was lowered for Community observer standards. Raised several exposures after takeover.
# SN-C1, C2, C3-r, S1, S2, and X-1 taken,  poor seeing for all, problems for S2 (see Notes to DM)
# Return to Wide field z and Y bands for finale
#Morning standards SDSSJ0100-0000, SDSSJ0200-0000, SDSSJ0320-0000

*Minor Problems and Relevant Information*

# Large offsets from start of night pointing. (RA: -51.0, Dec: -3.9). Applied offsets and reran to get smaller offsets (RA: 3.9, Dec: 3.9)

*Notes for Data Management*

# SN-S2 g and r band (exposures 473603-4) are fairly cloudy and have large PSF.
# SN-C2 g and r band (exposures 473619-20) have incredibly poor seeing
