(meteorobs) Cloud and sky transparency forecasts



Here is a Canadian web site that provides cloud cover and sky transparency
forecasts for over 200 areas around the U.S. and Canada.  If it has been
posted on meteorobs, I missed it,
so...........http://www.cleardarksky.com/csk/

Looks like we may be clear in North Carolina.
