Dont dust, smog and moisture have more to do with transparency than seeing? Having a breeze remove them helps the viewing though.
In the summer time here we get stiff sea breezes that absolutely strips the atmosphere of dust and cools the land of to remove the heat haze. The view around midnight is brilliant.
I've found viewing the sunset gives a good indication of the expected seeing, the bluer the sky near the horizon,the better the seeing.
