very new to this but i am going to have to learn how to gauge the seeing a little more accurately i guess
i have seen the "seeing conditions" rated many times and it is just another tool for me to use

Other than the scintillation of the stars and visible cloud I think it does come down to looking/photographing through the telescope and seeing what the view/result is like.

My CCD is dead, so nothing at all for me right now! Never mind I just got a couple of spots of rain on me before getting on the train.
