Yep, visual astronomy is very much unpredictable, a bit like fishing.
Tonight is a particular tease here in greater western Sydney — transparency is pretty much absent (veils of high cloud), but the air has moments of great stillness. I'm looking at Mars through my 6" Mak at the moment with a 5mm LV eyepiece (360x)! I don't get that very often here.
Cheers
Steffen.
