Weather looks dicey, but it looked a lot worse this time yesterday.

Enjoyed your report Bob. Did the weather hold for you so you could see all of the events?

Unfortunately not Steve, clouds started appearing and by the time Europa was due to throw its shadow on the surface, I could see little. Occasionally, it thinned enough to show the two Moons near the planet after they had reappeared, but never enough to see even Io's shadow.
