Weather: Just touched below freezing overnight. Light winds from SSW towards morning. IOP 5 underway. Soundings good through 4am launch so far. A few cirrus this morning (was "not-a-cloud-in-the-sky" in recent days). LATER: Warmed to about 17C. 1/10 stratiform clouds at times. No fair weather Cu. Some smoke aloft from the controlled burn to the south.

Profiler power: 0.144mW (at 16:20Z)

WILL need to clear disk space within 1 day (Bill is on it).

SODAR site: solar trailer battery at 85% (6am LT); . Sodar chirping. Checked Solar Trailer at 6 am, which is a few minutes before sunrise. Still at 85% after a full night of (sunless) operation.

All sensors appear to be operating well, however:

CEILOMETER CL-View screen shows a warning: Status: Blower failure; Status: Heater fault; (both blower and heater show "OFF").

GENERATOR SERVICE times and data impacts

ISS-site: Sunstate serviced the generator (quite rapidly). I paused the 449 from 12:30 to 12:45 LT. The only data loss should be wind profiler and RASS.

ISFS-site: Sunstate swapped the generator. Power was down from approximately 1:05 to 1:30 LT (20:05 to 20:30 Z). However, there are larger date gaps because of issues restarting all equipment.

All-sky camera: Missing data from 20:07 to 22:25 Z

Ceilometer reflectivity: Missing data from 20:07 to 20:35Z

Ceilometer MLH (mixed-layer-height): missing a couple of plots, but with overlapping data on these plots it's all there.

Surface station data at ISFS-site: Two minor data gaps between 20 and 21 Z.
