Where is the love? :lol:
I have been expecting some really clear skies down in Melbourne of late as I am unable to get out under the stars :P
Clear as a bell last night over on my side Mike.
Of course that was only because I hadn't set up the scope.:D

Yeah I have extremely clear skies at my site ... and a telescope that is out of collimation. When the new one lands it will be cloud city !

Yeah I've noticed there's been a lot more cloud out south west lately. We've been lucky so far this week in Sydney and it's looking like tonight and tomorrow will be ok with some very good seeing. Hope I didn't jinx myself by saying that.
