[AZ-Observing] Re: The Monsoon may already be here



Lets see... two days of mountainous thunderstorms, a dense dust storm
here in the city Friday and pounding rain last night.  Dew point
definitions put aside, the monsoon has arrived with a fury here in Tucson!

Hopefully tomorrow morning will be clear, just installed all of the
baffles in the refractor tube and painted it inside, very black, no
internal reflections to be seen when held up to a bright light.  I'll
let it bake in the sun all day to cure the paint before assembling it
tonight and have it ready for Mars in the morning.
