I got up at 3 am this morning to do some photometric observing. Still
hot out there. It was 83 in the observatory. I was surprised and
delighted at how stable the sky was. It turned out to be an excellent
photometric sky.
I'm hoping to repeat it tomorrow morning. The star systemsI'm
observing (epsilon Aurigae and VV Cephei) rise late thus the early
morning observing.
I know this is normally a very bad time of year to observe, but
anyone willing to bear the heat might find it rewarding.
Jeff
