The clear sky clock says cloud cover at 10%at5 pm and increasing to 40% by 9:00 with poor transparency and average (3/5) seeing. I say it is doable if we show the brighter objects such as open clusters, and double stars.

I don't see cloud cover to be the issue - Skippy Sky shows them moving out over the next 4-6 hours, but transparency and seeing are going to be in the so-so, to poor range starting around 6PM.

That means that Neptune and Uranus will be tough targets, but we should be able to show enough other items to keep things interesting.

I say we do it.
