There's the rub. I hope we get a decent amount of clear skies this year.

I think last year must have been the cloudiest year I have ever experienced.

You know most of this cloud is only on the eastern side of the Grreat Divide. I drove through rain to get to my dark site 2 weeks ago and it was perfectly clear all night there. Out of 11 nights I got 10 clear nights with a couple I had to wait an hour or two for some cloud to clear.

It seems the much lower humidity there means even if there is a fair bit of cloud around during the day as soon as night comes and it cools off the cloud is reabsorbed and -bang clear skies!

Greg.
