Ah Well. At least it was clear for the 29º and 60º pass at 10:49pm and 12:24am tonight. Metcheck is showing 48 - 19% cloud for a period in the early hours of Sunday. Hopefully the clearer area arrives an hour or 3 ahead of schedule. Then again this far out that forecast means nothing. We really wont have a better idea till Saturday itself.

That can very easily happen, so fingers crossed!
