Tony,
I am very interested in imaging Titan's shadow transits. I put together a
similar table as yours a few months back, and the times match up for the most
part. I used the excellent WinJupos freeware for calculating the times. What
was the software or Web site that you used? Here's my summary on Cloudynights.

By the way, the seeing forecast for this morning on the Clear Sky Clock site
showed "5 out of 5", but it was between 3 and 4 in my back yard. The CSC
forecasts are able to predict poor seeing (when you're below a turbulent upper
atmosphere), but can't capture local effects. I have seen 5/5 seeing in my
back yard at times, by the way.
Tom
