Easily the worst dew I've seen in my life. In one hour, the dew was so heavy that it resembled that at 6am after an all-nighter on our coldest nights. I would've put up with it had the seeing been excellent, but it was very ordinary at best.
Even my windows are fogged over!
And to think 12 hours prior I was having one of the best sessions of my life. Absolutely unbelievable seeing conditions.
