Hi Everyone,
Finally, I have managed some observing! (weather and studies permitting!).
It was a particularly chilly night last night, with the small puddles left
over from rain in the morning quickly performing a phase transistion i.e. it
froze!. The conditions look favourable for tonight, we have had clear skies
all day with the temperature being close to 0 deg celsius. Here's looking
forward to crisp, sharp and clear skies tonight!.
