I'm with Sam on this.  Let's do it.  BTW, Cabelas has a 40% off special on warm 
gear. I got a set of Polartec base layer stuff that's amazingly warm. Check it 
out.

It will be cold. However, I also plan on bringing a thermos of hot chocolate 
and  thermos of hot apple cider. I will bring a few extra cups, but it would be 
nice if PAS people brought their favorite hot drinks.  So far I see Mike, Sam, 
Frank, Eric, Earl, Darlene, and Don as having rsvp'd. Dress warm, with parkas, 
hats, gloves. Tonight the seeing looks beautiful and it is cold. No doubt it 
will be cold at PVCC Blk Mountain. I just hate to cancel since we cancelled Nov 
and Dec and 3 times in a row is very sad indeed. However, if enough of you 
don't want to do it, let me know and I will ask Terri to cancel. Right now, 
however, I still want to give it a try. If you get real cold, we can take turns 
going inside the PVCC building to warm up for a few minutes. There will be a 
lot of good objects to view:  Jupiter, Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, M81 & 
M82, Gamma Andromeda double star, etc...Let's try to make it work.  Take care, 
Sam

I have been looking at the PVCC Blk Mtn coordinates 2 miles S of Cave Creek, 
not the City of Phoenix. So the temp should be 40 degrees at 7 pm and then get 
to the mid 30's by 10 pm. We should be out of there by 10 pm. Mike and I and 
Frank are still planning on doing the Jan 15th event. If it clouds up or if 
there are strong winds we can reconsider. But so far Skippy Sky says  no 
clouds, The Weather Channel says no clouds and Accuweather says no clouds so I 
think we should still do it. Again, things could change so we should continue 
to monitor it each day. If anyone does back out, please let me know asap. Take 
care, Sam

The only issue here is that when it's 40 in Phoenix, it's 8º to 10º colder up 
here.  While the official low for last night was 37º, it hit 29º here north of 
Pinnacle Peak.

So, keep that in mind when we're looking at BMCC - it will be a good bit 
chillier than the Phoenix report.

That is just too cold for these old bones; so I will not be attending.
