La Niña is back , so soon
The east coast of NSW in particular Sydney , Central Coast and South Coast is experiencing unseasonal wet weather leading into Winter. It’s been raining off and on ( mainly overnight) since the beginning of May and doesn’t look like clearing until mid to late May.
BOM has predicted another La Niña event but it was suppose to form sometime in June or July. ( they got it wrong again )
I suppose a good time to take a short break from Astro and do other things that maybe more important like catching up with friends , jobs around the house and maybe a weekend away with your other half.
Also a good time for maintenance and service of your Astro equipment like -
Cleaning lens and mirrors on your telescopes
Cleaning eye pieces
Cleaning / Lubricating mounts
Housekeeping on Laptops and desktops
Updating your Dark library
Cleaning out / selling gear you never use
And so on ……..
Those who observe and image from the east coast of NSW are probably use to these wet weather events but it is somewhat frustrating at times.
Comments welcome
