Summary: Cold and foggy, standard data collection, Licor box door was open but no damage, replaced dead HMP45 fan

Vaira
2020-01-08

Siyan and I arrived at about 9:00. It was cold and foggy. It was foggy all through the Delta and Central Valley. The grass is a little greener than last time but still only about 5cm high. The cows have eaten or trampled last year’s litter, so outside the cow fence looks greener than inside the fence where the litter is hiding the new grass. However the new grass inside the cow fence might be a little taller not having been grazed. The ground water has not changed much – the water hole level is about the same. The ground may even be a little drier than last time.

The door to the Licor box was open but it seemed dry inside and was running well. I made sure the doors were all closed.

Standard data collection – all seemed well.

The HMP45 fan was dead. I replaced it and cleaned the shield plates.
