GordonCopestake Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Been cloudy here all day, that horrid grey no sun no shadows hot humid type of weather. Then about 4pm it started to rain, really huffed it down. I was quite pleased as the sky cleared after then and it started to look like a nice clear night. Checked the weather forcast, no realy chance of rain in my area so i setup (ok it only took 5 mins but still). Got all my bits out, went to align the scope and realised i couldn't see anything. Looked around only to discover that whilst i'de been setting up a bank of mist or fog or something had decended. It just got thicker and thicker. Now i can't see my shed..... Let alone any stars. The worse thing is there are NO clouds!!Maybe it will clear. Heres to hopeing. I might just open that bottle of red instead. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelRat Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 We've just about dried out from the flippin inevitable overzealous storm you get after a good spell. Branches in the roads, flash floods, wind tryin to tip the car over - you know the sort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaptain Klevtsov Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I was collared with the old "just sit and chat for a bit" line. No clouds, no fog, cool outside with no noisy teenagers, beer in the fridge, Nikon emptied, laptop fully charged, power tanks fully charged and neighbours in bed asleep.Tonight I need the sleep so that I can get up for work.Ces't la vie.Captain Chaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
