With the run of poor seeing/transparency (read cloud) of late I thought it might be fun to ask who's game enough to predict when the next patch of good seeing is going to arrive?

Now, I understand your prediction will most likely not be applicable to someone living hundreds of Ks away...

But just for fun, let's have those predictions anyway;)

Remember - just for fun. Let's not get too bogged down in qualifying our responses:thumbsup:

So when's it gonna get gooooooood? Anytime in the next 7 days? Or is it just not there in the foreseeable near future?

Looking at the jetstream, maybe in 3 days time.

Most likely though, it will coincide with the weather turning foul again.

Yes it will be clear from here on...
I was thinking of asking a similar question when replying to Rob re our star party..
I think maybe the cold that seems to be with us may help and move the jet stream North... I have no idea but you encouraged unqualified comment..
Wishing may help.. I hope it helps.

Would you believe Matt that i have had the last 4 nights PERFECT!
I havent imaged though cos of the bloody moon! I wish it would rain during times of full moon and then it can clear and give me 14 days of relatively clear weather!

I did look at Saturn the other night with my C8 while i tested my right angle magnifier for my camera i bought, and it was rock steady, cassini division was easily visible.....i wanted to grab my LPI imager but it was quite a lot of dew forming and my laptop would have been drenched........
Today its quite blue and perfect again!

So unless this moon buggers off i'd say another 4 days, because it ALWAYS clears up on a tuesday night when im scheduled to go tenpinning!

Cheers!

if anyone's as smart as i am with regards to tipping they know 3 rules:

1. NEVER EVER tip the Dragons
2. Regardless of what the media says NEVER agree that the Dragons are title contenders
3. Only ever follow 2 teams, your favourite team and any team who plays the Dragons....:rofl:

GO YOU MIGHTY PANTHERS! :thumbsup:
My tip: Penrith 26 - Dragons 12

26-12?

bewdy! I'll take that:)

Now, anyone else game to predict when the seeing's gonna lift its game?:D

It does look like we might get some help from that big (albeit wishy washy) high that's over the upper half of the continent.
