Cloud came over late yesterday afternoon - rain started in the early hours of the morning. It's a nice gentle soaking rain and is the first we've had for quite a while. Out here, any rain is pretty good rain, as we can always use it, so we tend not to complain. It is frustrating though when you've got a 5 day old 12 " dob to play with.
I've had 4 nights decent viewing out of it (and 4 nights without tea) and this being the long weekend, I was hoping to do an all nighter. Chances look a bit slim at the moment though.
Spending my time indoors in front of the heater reading "Universe - The Cosmos Explained" by Colin Ronan.
Jeez! We don't get rain for ages and then we get it on the first long weekend after I get my new scope.
