I know what you mean about the weather. I had the most amazing sky on Saturday. We went to visit the relatives at Willow Tree. Totally cloudless, almost dead calm, no sign of humidity, around 7 deg at 23:00.

SQM 21.2 to the NW. SQM 20.8 from the Milky Way just to the west of Crux. There was one outside light we (that includes the owner) couldn't figure out how to turn off would have have made it even better.

Coal Sack, SMC and LMC all standing out like the proverbial.

So many stars I've never seen from Sydney made alignment difficult. If only the jolly mount would behave. Must threaten it with replacement.
