Weather forecasts force cancellation of our Public Night again. The Clear Sky chart[1] predicts transparency and seeing mostly as “Too cloudy to forecast”. As of 11:00 local time, all the other forecasts [2][3][4] predict mostly cloudy to overcast skies with a 15 to 50 percent chance of a thunderstorm or rain. Conditions won’t be suitable for astronomical observations.
Hoping for clear skies for the eclipse and our next public night,
