No imaging up here either. It's lovely and clear but its blowing a gale and there must be a lot of fine particles in the air as the sky glow is terrible. Good time to get out and tune up the equipment and deal with those niggley little annoyances.

Not to worry, the cloud will go away after the big bright moon has risen.

No good in Adelaide either. I went out at about 1:30 for an hour or so. It was clear but windy and heaps of skyglow and the moon was getting up, couldn't see much at all.
