I'm still skeptical about the seeing arcseconds. I've only been keeping an eye on it for the last month or so but I almost never see a number above 1.00 and sometimes below 0.50. The numbers are under 1.00 in the daytime when they are expected to be worse (I do solar). Even at x2.355 that comes in around 1.00 to 1.50 FWHM. The other day I was testing out some new white-light solar imaging equipment and the seeing was definitely crummy. With so many new components and processes I was trying I can't pinpoint where any fault lies, but if I were to give meteoblue the benefit of the doubt, I would say it's the ground-level conditions. I pointed the scope at a radio antenna on a hill top and the antenna looked like it was doing a hula dance from all the atmospheric shimmer. So maybe the atmospheric air was great but the ground level air was crummy.
