FreeLists / az-observing / [AZ-Observing] Question about clear sky statistics in Arizona & Tucson

[Herve Dole <hdole@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

While waiting the monsoon season to end, I tried to find on the web the
following information, without great success .. Maybe some of you know
the answer, or can direct me to the appropriate documents !

- what is the average number per year of clear nights in Arizona ? in
Tucson ?

By "clear" one can understand, either (if we go to this level of
details, I'll be happy !):
- with some clouds but allowing amateur observations;
- without any clouds;
or
- photometric;
- spectroscopic.

I found on http://geography.asu.edu/azclimate/lcd/tucson.html the same
statistics, but for the day time. I found also the nice statistics at
Lowell by Brian Skiff
http://www.lowell.edu/cgi-bin/www/clouds/clouds.cgi . (may be I didn't
look carefully enough the Kitt Peak web site ?).

Thanks

Herve Dole
