Yeah I'm aware of all that Rob. I read some where recently (might have been the Cloudy Nights review of the PST?) that its actually better viewing during the early morning and late afternoon to avoid the thermals of the middle of the day
. Sort of contradictory to what we're mormally used for night time astro work, but I suppose all these things are in play. Sometimes early morning and late evening might be good, other times the normal astro factors might be dominant perhaps?
Time and experience will tell though!
