The document discusses a period of power loss and recovery at a satellite monitoring station. Initially, a brief period of icing occurred when temperatures were warm, but icing became inactive. Power was lost for around 12 hours. Suddenly recovery occurred as temperature and wind speed decreased overnight. However, the drop in relative humidity alone should not have been adequate to explain the recovery. The cause of the sudden change remains unclear.
