Weather has sucked for this project so far, lol. But here's an update. More hands to help eventually. Fark me - just glacially slow. 

Building an observatory? 

First thunderstorm of the year! Stuck close to the house and woke me up. Dogs didn’t enjoy it as much as I did.

When… will… these… clouds… go… away…….???

Sky conditions at ROC right now. So, I'm off to the Rochester Science Museum to see the two toed Sloth Exhibit and the eclipse planetarian show. So, at least I will see an eclipse on the big screen! . They don't have that in Newport, VT....lol

Do you know Al p from barkhamsted? Also does skywarn. He’s my boss.

Got a test shot. And I’m all ready!

Can anyone smarter than me give an update on what the clouds may be like?

I’m lugging myself and all my equipment to Altona NY. Staying in ALY tomorrow night.

Excited for multiple clear nights in a row! Hasn’t happened in a while.

Getting more reports of snow from followers with accumulation in NW CT. Good luck today. 

What page do you run?

Everything whitened up super quickly. Pavement included.

With the flakes being so big you can see them so far up into the sky. At least 800 feet up maybe more.

I’ve never seen snowflakes this big wow!

This was taken with a 6 inch f/5 Newtonian.

1.5 hours worth of exposures and a whole lot of calibration frames.
