Seems like alot of the crappy cloudy days in Melbourne are giving way to freezing clear nights lately. But no observing.... tired from work and get home too late to do any lunar and saturn observing.

Cold nights are my fave conditions for observing, despite the ridiculous amount of dew, seeing tends to be good and transparency is A1. My best obs sessions, both in terms of transparency and seeing, have ended with the hum of the heater outlet as my parents turn it on as they prepare to go to work.

I don't mind the cold unless it gets to -20C or so....
