Wednesday OPS Shift Report

TITLE: 08/26 Day Shift: 1430-2330 UTC (0730-1630 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Planned Engineering
INCOMING OPERATOR: Corey
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:
    SEI_ENV state: CALM
    Wind: 19mph Gusts, 8mph 3min avg
    Primary useism: 0.03 μm/s
    Secondary useism: 0.10 μm/s 
QUICK SUMMARY:
JAC unlocked it's self as soon as I took over from TJ this mornin. 
Comissioners & crew were able to get H1 through a manual initial alignment.  They also took the ISC_DRMI guardian all the way up to PREP_PRMI_ASC[37].
We have largely not touched X-arm today due to the potential ETMX Rubbin Issue found here : alog # 91684 . 

The Temp inside EndX is elevated by a degree and a half due to the clean room being turned on and heating the VEA up.

Comissioners are still working on alignment.

Dust in the PSL room seems to be elevated due to the wind.
