I see from the ABC news you're getting your share of wild weather!!
(and the swine flu virus!!)
The good news is that the weather will clear and you will have excellent seeing conditions; I believe there will also be power outages in Sydney and Melbourne, to give +5mag naked eye skies from the city centres commencing when I arrive back on the 14th June!!!!!
Make the best of it
Still haven't had the opportunity to do any observing over here!!
Al/ Jeff/ Bernard/ Mark/ Terry... any more observations of Eta Car????
