ZeroID I use to live in wellington before coming here about 8 months ago and it was very hard to get clear skies because 90% of the time i would be cloudy windy rainy......
Yep, that happened to me once last week and once this week! This week it was clear when I set up. Got everything turned on and about to start doing a drift alignment, turned around and saw the wall of cloud coming towards me. Stuck it out for a little while, got disheartened and start packing up an hour later. By the time I'd finished packing up it was clearing up again!

It was really cloudy some 2 hours later though so it wasn't too bad then.
