    Last night we had mostly clear skies so I powered up the Observatory at around 6pm waiting for the Moon to come from the East. Just as it got into a good position for imaging.......the clouds came over and it started to rain.:dunno::wallbanging::heehee: So it's been cloudy with some blue skies with the temperature only getting up to 50f. Now the skies have turned completely cloudy, the temperature is 47f and the pressure reading is 999hpa.:coffee::snorky:

          @Lorea glad that Autumn has arrived for you, sounds like it's well needed :thumbsup:
          But it seems Winter arrived last night for me, [​IMG] frozen water in the ponds and me poor nasturtiums got badly hit - but a glorious sunny :SUNsmile:day followed. Got on and dug over me compost heap :phew: so felt like a summers day in the garden :spinning:

              Back to sunshine again today with a cold wind blowing making 9C/48F feel much colder.

                Weather was teasing frost, but frost was not ready for action yet. So some of my deck plants still can remain outside. but lovely chilly weather came calling. enjoy good sleeping.

                    Winter arrived today with sleety showers and good spells of sunshine in-between. The temperature mid morning was up to 9C/48F but by early afternoon plummeted to 2C/36F.

                      It's been dry but cold during the morning, then showers turned up during the afternoon with a daytime temperature of 50f which quickly dropped down to 47f. It's been raining/drizzling since around 7pm, the temperature is now 43f and the pressure reading is 998hpa.:coffee::snorky:

                          Mostly sunny again so I spent some time digging out a bed in my garden. Come late afternoon the heavens opened with a short but heavy downpour just as I was clearing up, so back to work on that tomorrow. :) 9C/48F.

                            After yesterday's five mile walk in the rain, today was sunny and dry but the Northerly arctic wind cut right through you, even down here!

                              Sunny, with some cloud, a stiffening breeze and a top temperature of 44f. The skies have cleared, the breeze is still there, and the temperature has dropped to 36f, with the pressure reading 1005hpa. I did say that the skies were clear but in fact there is a haze quite high up which is making observing with the scope and getting a clear, sharp image a little difficult:dunno::wallbanging::coffee:
