February 4th Observing

Unfortunately after a bright afternoon cloud has started to spill in from Southeast, it is possible there could be some gaps, but none of the forecasts are very optimistic. We will open the Observatory if there is any clear sky at 7:00pm. Sorry I can’t be more definite! L.J.Guise

There is just a chance of some clear sky in the forecast, if so the observatory will be open from 7:00-8:30pm. I will post an update during the afternoon of the 4th. L.J.Guise

A good day for Solar telescopes, but sadly it looks as if cloud and rain will arrive late in the afternoon. If the forecast is wrong and there is some clear sky we will be open at 7:30pm, but I’m not optimistic. L.J.Guise
