Hey Jim I just set my scope up to see sunspot 570 and clouds moved in. It was a sky w/o anything in the way of clouds. This all happened in 10 minutes while I was putting the scope on the pier and getting set up. We also planned a trip to the back side for Saturday but we have blizzard warnings up again on Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa. Haleakala only has freezing warnings but no snow, only 10023ft. Aloha Rob
