(meteorobs) Poor Weather

[David Stine]

If the skies would clear up, we could watch the meteor shower in the
city Thursday night as Tulsa is probably the darkest city in the US
right now as over 200,000 people are without power and there are no
lights to interfere with meteor observing.  Chances are slim that we
will get those clear skies though.

Here in Central Florida, USA, Thursday night was calling for rain. Now,
it looks like a revised forecast shows partly cloudy. Now I will
definitely take Friday off, and be out all night Thursday. Partly cloudy
is better than rain!

Mark et al:

    I know how you feel.  Every major shower this past year has been 
clouded out at my location on Vancouver Island.  One reason I setup a 
forward scatter radio meteor detection system here.  Nothing has 
changed for the Geminids!  Rain is predicted.  :-(  No luck securing 
any spectra this year.  I HOPE 2008 will be better!  Now if I could do 
something about light pollution!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, or to be politicly correct, Happy 
Holidays!
