* Turned off and unplugged all 3 heaters.
* Turned on A/C.
* Was unable to do a voltage check on the web camera power supply.  Found an unused 12V/1A power supply that worked with the camera and the power light on  the camera came on, it did not when we tested with the original power supply.
* David Keith installed the rain gauge.  The gauge was tested to make sure the wires were connected properly by having David Keith "tip" the sensor and Jen Hershey sitting at the computer monitoring the data through loggernet interface.
* David Keith ran the Cat-3 Ethernet cable for the Met Station through the old disdrometer conduit.  He then terminated the severed end to be connected to the NL105 Network Interface at the Met Station.  As a result a connection was made to the data logger and data collection commenced at 5:57pm UTC.
* Jen Hershey collected Met Station data for a Richard Suggs, graduate student of the Geology department.  He is wanting rainfall data for his research from Nov. 4, 2007 through Oct. 2008.  Jen found all but September and October 2008.
* Jen Hershey attempted to install an external hard drive sent for the NOAA profiler computer but found it was a bad drive.  She also noticed the other external drive for the same computer was full.  Jen contacted Dave Carter and he is sending out new external drives for the profiler computer.  At the present time the only data being archived from the profiler is what is going to UND Glacial Ridge 2 external hard drive.  
* Jen Hershey investigate reports of missing raw profiler data used to create images.  Two things were found: 1) the script to Archive UND data was turned off and 2) when the external drive was switched out for an empty one on GlacialRidge2, the drive was not reset to be a shared drive so the profiler computer was unable to find and write UND's drive.  This was corrected and data began flowing from Nov. 2009 to the external drive on GlacialRidge2.  Raw profiler plots are now being shown on the Glacial Ridge website.
* UND Glacial Ridge 2 Data Archival:
*   * C:\Profiler\hour_images to  C:\GR_DATA_ARCHIVES\Profiler\hour_images (20070104 to 20091113)
*   * Met Station Data C:\GR_DATA to GR_DATA_ARCHIVE (2007 to 2009)
