STATE of H1: Earthquake
INCOMING OPERATOR: Oli
SHIFT SUMMARY: Very uneventful shift until towards the end when a large earthquake knocked H1 out of lock after 15.5 hours.
Still waiting for ground motion to calm down before untripping things and starting alignment.
LOG:
No log for this shift.

STATE of H1: Earthquake
OUTGOING OPERATOR: Ryan S
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:
SEI_ENV state: EARTHQUAKE
Wind: 17mph Gusts, 11mph 3min avg
Primary useism: 1.06 μm/s
Secondary useism: 0.69 μm/s
QUICK SUMMARY:
Currently in DOWN and waiting for the earth to stop ringing from the earthquake (80101). We should be able to start untripping things and starting alignment hopefully within the next hour.
Lockloss @ 09/15 22:25UTC after 15.5 hours locked due to a 6.5 earthquake from off the west coast of Canada. Peakmon went above 280,000 counts, almost everything tripped, and the earthquake registered in BIG RED BUTTON on the plot. We only noticed when the University of Washington OTR picket fence trace starting increasing, but I initially thought it was a glitch because of how fast it was increasing. We'll be out for a while. Here are some fun screenshots:

STATE of H1: Observing at 150Mpc
INCOMING OPERATOR: Tony
SHIFT SUMMARY: Currently Observing at 155Mpc and have been Locked for over 17 hours. During this lock so far we've hit 160Mpc for the CLEAN_SNSC range channel and 166Mpc on the CAL_SNSW channel. Our squeezing isn't good at the higher frequencies, but I haven't been able to run sqz alignment because Livingston and Virgo have been staying nice and locked this entire time as well. Superevent S240915b during my shift but other than that has been a quiet evening.

No obvious cause; only locked for about 90 minutes. I don't see the ETMX glitch prior to the lockloss that I've seen in the others today.
