We stopped around 6:00 due to rain. We started again the observations with EMIR at 7:46, trying pointing under the same project and stopped again at 8:09 due to high values of tau and the fact that we could not obtain a stable pointing. We repeated another data acquisition with NIKA for training purposes.

Nov 15th, Tuesday
16:36-21:00; Stergios: No NIKA2 neither EMIR observations were conducted during due to high tau values (see following plot depicting the corresponding tau values for this time window). We performed a quick system check that started at 16:36 (after maintenance) checking only the tuning since we could not perform a pointing or focus due to the weather conditions. For training purposes of the current observers we initiated the data acquisition for NIKA2.
21:00-03:00; Lara: High tau values. No observations.
Nov 16th, Wednesday
03:00-09:00; Stergios: High tau values and rain during the whole shift with increase of the wind velocity. No observations.
09:00-15:00; Rodrigo: Very unstable tau measurements (0.2 < tau < 8.8). Rain and light snow for most part of the shift. No observations.
15:00-21:00; Israel: No observations carried at the telescope due to high values of tau (~5-8) and periodic rains. I attach a picture of the site during the late afternoon
21:00-03:00; Lara: It was not possible to observe with either NIKA2 (tau>0.4) or EMIR (high tau + highly unstable weather conditions).
