2019 Year In Review Poster


2019 is in the books and here are the stats:
For 64 nights of 2019 I was in the obs imaging ( 17% ) an average of only 5 days per month.

97 nights were clouded out totally ( 27% )
58 nights had partly cloudy skies unworthy of imaging ( 21% )
45 nights were rainy ( 12% )
34 nights were "clear" but mucky conditions ( 9% )
29 nights were snowing ( 8% )
_6 nights were clear but strong winds made imaging impossible ( less than 2% )
_4 nights were foggy ( about 1% )
_2 nights were of no use due to heavy smoke from forest fires ( less than 1% )
all the rest I was either too busy, sick, on vacation or out of town on business. ( 3% )
