Re: (meteorobs) Leonid weather update...
Wesley,
After that openong line, your sarcasm dripped all over my keyboard. I
work for Tek, and used to visit Beaverton several times a year. I love the
way all the trees are still green after the leaves have fallen from the
moss and lichen on all the tree trunks :-). I did have one beautiful trip
out in July once though when hardly a cloud was visible for 2 weeks. Mt
Hood was visible from the TV highway in Beaverton every day. So it can
happen I guess. Wish I'd known about meteor observing back then.
Hope you catch a break this weekend...Have a Henry's Private Reserve on me.

Up here in usually dry and sunny Portland, the 5-day extended forecast is
calling for clouds and rain, with a few ice pellets thrown in and snow in
the mountains. I might be crazy enough to drive to Eastern Oregon for
Sunday morning, but right now it doesn't look like that will be enough to
find clear skies.
On the upside, we just experienced an incredible triple rainbow.
Standing in front of the campus library, it looked like the pot of gold
should be somewhere in the observatory dome! Someone had a camera;
hopefully they got a good shot of it.
