    So who is out there tonight??

    Observing has begun..thus far Jupiter, M42, M37..

    Conditions: Cold! 5-8mph steady wind out of the ENE..air temp right now at 30F with far colder wind chills..seeing is average to poor, around a 4-5...transparency about a 7, but its cloudless!

    Glad I am home tonight in my mag. 5 skies instead of outside all night at our remote mag. 6 skies!

    Spring time galaxies on my list tonight..its rare in these parts that we get to see them...
