Rate My Forecasted Seeing - Advice Needed.


Recommended Posts

This is what the seeing is forecasted for for my location tonight. I am bringing my setup to try some planetary imaging. I have better views of the low planets at this location and it has been cloudy for weeks. Based on the forecasted chart, should I bother? It looks good but I am a novice at reading the finer details of the seeing forecast. I will be looking to image Jupiter & Saturn with a C11 and a Neximage 5 camera on an AZ-EQ6 GT mount.

Does this seeing look v. poor, poor or fair? I know enough to know it's certainly not 'good' or better.

I find seeing almost impossible to predict! high pressure, low pressure, jet stream, local atmospheric conditions, the list is pretty long. One thing is for certain though, clear skies are so infrequent, time so limited its worth getting out every time you can.

For what its worth i do look out for high pressure and no Jetstream overhead.
