------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
------------------------------------------------------------------------

A frustrating night - starting with cloud that didn't let us see the spectrophotometric standard we were hoping to take, then after a quick block, the humidity closed us just after twilight started. The humidity dropped and the skies cleared just before 3am, and we managed to take another two blocks before the internal dewpoint forced us to close again.
