Jupiter last night, 27/8. With red spot and Io's shadow. Oval BA getting close to red spot, also looks like a big storm up the top. Wasn't a good night for seeing with 100% humidity. Heavy dew and everything fogged up quickly and got wet. By morning there was a thick fog till about 9am. As my primary mirror fogs up I notice the view on the camera get darker and darker, till I have to pack up. This seems to happen a lot in my area. Maybe I need a way to defog the mirror so I can keep going. But the seeing isn't real good anyway on these heavy dew nights.
