Clear for 2 hours!!

[Milliways]

It was clear for me for about 2 1/2 hrs tonight managed to get the scope out and take some subs of the M31 and jupiter!!

could this be a turn around for all of us astronomers, could we have clear skies once again? well lets hope so.

Did any1 else have any luck tonight?

Clearing now for me, back onto my bodes imaging with 10 min subs

I fell for the old it's only going to be clear until 1am guff on the met office web site so never bothered going out.

Looked out of the window at 2.30am and it was still clear

When will I ever learn

but if you had gone out, it would have clouded over 2 mins before the first sub downloaded.....

Yep I was out - forecast for me (Wiltshire) was for partial cloud but I got a good 2 hours

[ashenlight]

Same with me in Cardiff, forecast cloudy after 12am, clear as a whistle until at least 2am. I don't pay any attention to forecasts anymore just look out the window

I managed to get 3 hours observing last night.

It finally clouded over at around 1.30am

Cheers

Aint that the truth

It's been longer than I care to remember when I last had the scope out, but like Dave it was clear for me too last night ....well at least till 1 a.m. That gave me the chance to get some imaging subs in on IC1396. I had a bit of an experiment - so not sure if the results are up to anything .

All the same it was nice to be out under the stars once again after what seemed like such a long break.

cheers

Managed to get a bit of a view of Jupiter, seems a bit hazy, maybe it was a bit low to be clear? Still it was amazing to see what looked like 4 moons

I had a GREAT view of jupiter aswell.. i saw 4 moons like bright jewls and the 2 cloud lines too. The great red spot still eludes though
