There is a bank of high alt cloud off the S/W coast of the UK
which is tipping the S/W coast of Eire and making it's way up to us.
It will be hazy sun today but unless it fecks off before nightfall it could prove
problematic.

Yip. It turned out to be a problem alright.
Can't say we didn't see it coming....

Next time I'll bring the mobile broadband so we can
nail it down.

Tonight is really clear and fog free!
I've been out for a while in the yard and
I have to say, I really hope it holds for tomorrow evening.
It'll be a close shave looking at the sat charts.
I'll bring the laptop and mobile BB. so we can know for sure what the
weather is doing.
Dave, are you bringing the obsession?
If you are bringing the Obsession I will be passing your door at 6PM
so I could take the 10''.
I also have Sean Daverons number so if it is clear I could give him a call and invite him over the to have a look - and to maybe slip in the idea of light pollution

:twisted:
