The unusually favourable weather conditions brought by the high pressure area mean that the next few days are likely to provide our best opportunity this year for high resolution observing and imaging of the planet Jupiter.

I, for one, certainly intend to be out there!

Meteoblue and Skippy Sky both predict good seeing.  The Unisys forecast is equally favorable.

Must admit the weathers been fantasic,

Pity im  200 miles from my telescopes.

mind i've got my very own red spot, well its more of a huge red back, but as they say
mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday sun.
