Yeah, I can see lightening down south, and cloud has ruined tonight it seems. I was waiting for Saturn to get up above 60 degrees but it looks like a scrub.
Edit: I spoke too soon, just came in from closing up the observatory. The storms stayed out to sea and took any cloud with them by 1am, so I have had a few very good hours to observe Saturn and Jupiter very high in the sky. The plan was to go for the Encke Gap in the A-ring, but while Saturn is getting larger as it nears opposition on the 21st of July, that Gap still eludes me. Still it was a good night for chasing other delights like the Helix Nebula as well. I hope those who persevered have been rewarded.
