TITLE: 08/21 Day Shift: 15:00-23:00 UTC (08:00-16:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Observing at 114Mpc
OUTGOING OPERATOR: Niko
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:
    SEI_CONF state: EARTH_QUAKE
    Wind: 15mph Gusts, 11mph 5min avg
    Primary useism: 0.06 μm/s
    Secondary useism: 0.22 μm/s

In the last 12hrs microseism has made a big jump above the 50th percentile.  And Niko passed on info about an incoming EQ which is a Mag6.0 south of Australia (I've recently transitioned to the SEI EARTHQUAKE state).
QUICK SUMMARY:

In Niko's hand-off he mentioned being able to RELOAD ISC_LOCK to take H1 to its new spots (i.e. alignment we liked pre-camera bump). Range has been hovering around 111-117Mpc for the last 6+hrs of lock/observing.

On the Menu today:  Non-OBSERVING time for characterization of our new spot location state (which will involve a suite of measurements such as calibrations, SQZ stuuf, etc.).  This was tentatively scheduled for 9am and JeffK is going to confirm with Keita with this plan.
