Title: 10/30 Eve Shift 23:00-7:00 UTC (16:00-24:00 PST). All times in UTC.
State of H1: Observing
Shift Summary: After the wind calmed to a reasonable level a few hours into my shift, I began a slow progression of locking. I got to do a few things that were new to me, such as being involved in restarting a (really) frozen guardian node, and engaging the ISS 2nd loop manually. Locking in Observing after engaging 45 mHz blends. Microseism coming up slowly. Winds calm, at last.
