Sydney - is it worth setting up tonight?

No moon tonight. On CFN access says 70%-90% cloud while GFS is 0% till about 2am. On DSO Browser it says mostly 0% cloud for most of the night and star caster says about the sAme thing.

What do you guys think?

I was thinking about it. But no. Was cheesed off after Monday which was supposed to be good all night and ended up total cloud after midnight.

I had SGPro set up for the first time to go all night. It stopped before 1am after several guiding fails due to clouds

I think everyone’s cheesed off on the south east coast NSW
Sunday night was looking unbelievable but clouds and storms rolled in from the south west at 6.00pm and it’s been cloudy every night since
Maybe Thursday night or Sunday night ?
Can’t even use my big Goto Dob and view between cloud patches , it’s all heavy low cloud
Patience!!
