06/30/2024	Ken Rumstay	VSU (Emeritus)	Npne	CCD camera	10	1.5	Other	I closed the dome for about 1.5 hours while a thunderstorm passed through Valdosta. I feared losing power. The telescope tracked very well, but consistently points north and west of target after slewing. As noted by previous observer, I could not link to NOIRLab weather sites from the Observatory computer. I could from my local computer.
06/27/2024	Kurtis Williams	TAMU-C	none	Andor	0	12	Connection Issues	Internet to the mountain seems to be down - I can connect to the VPN, but none of the vnc connections are working, and mountain webcams and environmental information is not loading. The weather looks to be bad anyway.
