Clear skies lasted until about an hour after dark, then the clouds rolled in again...... I'm bloody sick of this.....

Yes, it's cleared for about half an hour, but the clouds are coming over again.

Been imaging since 20:00. All good here. Doing some super widefield in Ha with my Pentax lens. Very wet though. Good test for those dew straps I did. Everything's drenched but the lens. Whohoo!

well i have been imaging since 8 as well, but the coastal cloud is a worry and i am keeping an eye on it. M104 has just remained clear of most of the cloud, only had to stop for 20 min earlier. the showers are directly east and south of me at the moment. LOL i even took a shot at saturn (just to say i can image planets LOL) Marc i look forward to seeing your result

Good stuff. I see some clouds south but it's not moving very fast so I reckon another 3hrs worth. West is clear. It's bloody wet though and cold. You can breathe it. Tomorrow sould be better according to the forecast.
