I am making one of my rare PC appearances tomorrow night. I will be bringing along SDM #33 and giving it a sample of skies darker than Killarney Vale.

Cheers,

Are those fires looking to be a problem RB? Or were they only isolated backburns yesterday?

Sky is a lovely shade of blue

Your forcast sucks though

Forecast: Showery, becoming less settled

Yeah the forcast is generated by the program and is constantly updated but sometimes it's not always accurate.
I mainly use the data to see what is/has happened and not rely too much on the forcast.
It's good to have though, I suppose it will become unsettled and showery sooner or later.

The web cam is good, it gives you an idea of what the sky's like here.

Are you going to image tonight mate?

Have a great time observing tonight. I'm battling with the flu so I'm grounded.

See you all there next time.
