LLCC field conditions?

Post by Dick Jacobson »

Does anyone know the condition of the LLCC observing field? The weather forecast for tonight is spectacular and I'm thinking of going up.

I was the only MAS member there Friday night. The field was kind of muddy. Sky was absolutely clear and good seeing!

Did you get any Northern Lights? I got some about 11 or so from ELO.

There was a fine aurora to the north around midnight.
