Dew rarely falls in that area prior to 9.30pm, which I presume is your bedtime, thus you haven't seen it in 20yrs. Thank you for your input, though.

No offence to Wavy, but I had a good chuckle at this.
Oddly, I get NO dew at home in Canberra, even though I water the garden and grass twice daily (a fruitless endeavour in summer), yet out at the observatory outside Yass, dew can really be a problem (maybe it's the water evaporating out of all the sheep crap
). Had snap frosts out there too.
Now, if there was a way to plug something in and remove light pollution, I'd be happy - you know, like a massive overload to the grid
