AstronomyUkraine Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 January looks to be a complete whiteout here. February doesn't look to be much better, just the same as last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterrenland Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Another unexpected few hours of supposed clearness...what clouds there were have moved on. Fingers crossed it lasts a few hours. Decided to have a go at the Witch Head Nebula. It's quite low, but as the moon is away I thought I'd give it a go. Pretty bad though with only about 4 nights without clouds in January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padraic M Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Currently 30% of the sky has 100% clouds and the rest is clear of cloud but transparency not great. CO says good for tonight, MB says bad. What to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmack1 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 CO was saying cloud all night. Met.ie initially promised 4 hours clear then later closed that down to about 2 hours which is below my threshold for dragging the gear out. Turns out it was a beautiful sky from 21.00 till now. Tearing my hair out.😫 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padraic M Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Took the plunge anyway. Capturing the Fly at the moment, might turn this into a mosaic with the Spider later. Will keep going for as long as the cloud stays away. Might be an opportunity test out Nina's "Centre after Drift" feature in case I get cloudy patches later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
