Another pearler Bird, storm or not, it just doesn't matter. Always a pleasure to see your work.

Things are looking good for tonight, hope it hangs in through to tomorrow morning.

Fantastic.

As far as I can tell, your image was taken at a time when the jet stream was blowing about 60 MPH over your location. Which is good, but not great. I'll continue to compare your seeing reports with jet streams to see how important it really is.

Yes, the jet stream looks even better for the Australians on Mar 25-
Naturally I will be watching to see if you report better conditions.

As far as us in South Florida, well here is a photo which shows what happens when you try to capture an image under a jet stream. Photo by Bruce Worsley from South Florida..

As long as you were dancing on the inside as well...

Good to know the wit isn't wasted.

That's cool Bird.

Saturn's "doing a little dance, make a little luv, get down tonight...get down tonight"!

Very nice.

Cheers
