Weather: Mostly cloudy and cool, again breezy. There was a cold frontal passage with rain showers over night (between 2-4 am CDT). Forecast rain showers overnight tonight, continuing through the morning, with colder temps tomorrow.
Tasking:
- The morning data check showed a few issues with IRGA's due to rain/dew, but nothing of concern. However, upon inspection of real-time data in cockpit we noticed that the 10-m TRH at uconvm had failed. It turns out this occurred right around the time we arrived (between 9:07-9:17 am CDT). We unsuccessfully tried cycling the port, rebooting remotely, reconnecting the cable to the DSM, and rebooting locally at the DSM. We may have inadvertently fixed a non-reporting power monitor, but were unable to fix the TRH and it remains down. We could see no obvious reason for failure from our vantage point. We will have to wait for Ned's arrival to replace the TRH.
- Squeegeed 449 radomes around 9:10 am.
- Happy Halloween
