Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Has anyone been keeping numbers on these rotten cloudy nights...
I can't remember so many cloudy days/nights that have given so little rain.
I wouldn't mind if it rained, but it is just a tease......

It's the pits isn't it.
I guess it's just natures way of making you catch up on all that lost sleep. Or, priming you for some excellent viewing during Saturns opposition.

Skies have been pretty blue and clear lately here in Perth, but that's not much use with the moon so dominating. I bet next week will be cloudy, when the moon goes away.
