Frustrated

Hello again all, Seriously, when are we going to have skies clear enough for some quality viewing? Here in Port Macquarie we have had maybe 2 or 3 nights since christmas that were sort of ok but every other night cloud, cloud, cloud. Last night between cloud cover i got a quick look at Jupiter and the moon but too short lived. Anyway patience is a virtue right? To all in Queensland, best wishes for a speedy recovery from the floods, I sincerely hope all is well.
Clear skies!
Cheers,
Ray

Move to Perth - blue skies for day after day and nary a rain cloud in sight.

Revolting start to the year here, don't think there was a single clear night in the last 2 weeks Tonight was looking promising, but the cloud and drizzle are racing in so hoping tomorrow will deliver the goods (as promised).

Hopefully this isn't an omen for 2011, but 2010 was as rubbish as they come so topping that is gonna be a major effort.
