Looks as good as we're likely to get tonight. Anybody? I'm aiming for around 8:15, so at Firehouse around 7:30.

Ended up with a good crowd tonight. Had a few clouds move through, and some haze, but overall visibility was good. Really nice fireball around 11:15, broke up into multiples at the end.

This coming Saturday, the 19th, looks promising. Same time table as last week, Firehouse around 7-7:15, leave for the site around 7:45. Let me know if I need to help anybody getting out there.

Tomorrow night is a strong maybe right now. I'll post something more definitive around 4 or 5 tomorrow afternoon.

Not going tonight. Forecast is a lot worse than it was last night.

A few of us are heading to the Swamp tonight for some clear dark skies. If you have never been please let me know if you want to join us and I will arrange to meet with you. This is an impromptu observing session not an outreach. You are still welcome to come with or without equipment.

About to head for the swamp. Weather looks perfect. Aiming for 6:30-6:45. I'll be stopping in at Firehouse, but it will be a quick one.
