I did not observe last night, but before I went to bed at 11:45 I stuck my head out the door. It was a beautiful night. 10 miles to the east at the Cherry site it was cloudless and the stars were bright. There was a small cloud patch hanging over the Bradshaws at my place (10 miles west of the Cherry site). At 1:45 am it was still a beautiful clear night. These are just two snapshots in the night and there may have been significant protracted periods of cloudiness in other parts of the night but it appears I can restate "You just never know". At the moment the entire sky is partly cloudy. I wouldn't venture to guess what it might be like tonight this early in the day, and I will be gone on a trip around noon. Stan Stanley A.
