Hi Jeff,

It was taken last Friday night 24 January, some 5-6 days after the breakup on Sunday 19 January.

I have only had 4 clear nights out of nine nights since January 17. At this time of year I usually get about 70%+ clear nights so I would have expected 6-7 clear nights out of the past 9.

Cheers
Joe
