15:00-21:00 Frederic: no observations.

21:00-03:00 Stefano: Wind and snow. The telescope is completely frozen and parked. Few minutes after 2 a.m. local time, the taumeter drops suddenly to tau=0.1. We take a look outside. The sky is completely clear, the fog and snow are no more there, the snowcats are working on the mountain, the stars shine, the thermometer is at -13.5 Celsius. Gloria increases the power of the de-icing. Soon it'll be time to chase the comet, while we wait to have the 30m operational again.
