Curiously, over my way in Maroubra, seeing was the best its been for a very long time! I was able to push my 7" Intes Mak to 300X, and be able to see little white spots and soft dusty festoons on Jupiter and spy out a swarm of firefly satellites around Saturn. By far the best conditions I've had in ages.
Wavy came by too, paying me a surprise visit with his new 6" Intes Mak, and had to two beasties loose on Jupiter. Candy on a tripod...
Alex.
