Yep! I was out having a look. Saw that. Couldn't be too late - work and all that Monday.
Finally got some high mist or something by 8:30 - had a gorgeous 40 deg wide halo around the Moon I hadn't seen before.
And a nice balmy 7 deg while I was out and no dew. Heaven compared to Snake Valley 4am Saturday morning while I waited for M31 to rise high enough. I checked later and it was -2 deg by that stage. Gave up when the counterweight magnet kept freezing to the OTA
