it was chilly last night, but i had on a t-shirt with a jacket over it, so i wasnt so bad

Don't think Scotty is that precious re highjacking his thread a little bit...look at his set-up
Hmm?..I recorded quite few nights of -6 or -7 over the 25 years I lived in the Canberra region doing astronomy
. Since I moved to the Newcastle area, start of 2007, a very cold winter night is around +5C
I too was at the scope with shorts, Tshirt and maybe a jumper? I have been here over two year now so the body is de-aclimatising (is that a word?) zero C at Kurri Kurri (it's inland a bit) felt quite cold and required a few layers and IIS beanie
