yeh I think in Nth America and Canada, they get to see the occultation..
Anyway it matters not what is in the sky this week, the way things are going it'll be 5 weeks of bad weather and no observing.

Cloudy last night, cloudy this morning..
Sick of getting up at 3:30am, going outside and looking up, shedding a little tear

and heading back to bed
My copy of Astronomy 2005 arrives this week
