What are you doing tonight?

The same forecast, weighted for the target. Planetary work barely cares about moonlight; long exposures die on high cloud a visual observer would never notice.

SET UP 22:30 · OBSERVE 23:00–02:00 · 3H · MEAN 53

Darkness and moonlight dominate. Faint fuzzies need a genuinely dark sky more than they need steady air.

23010305
SET UP 22:30 · OBSERVE 23:00–01:00 · 2H · MEAN 55

Seeing is everything and moonlight is irrelevant. Bright targets punch through twilight, so darkness barely counts.

CLOUD RETURNS 01:00SEEING STAYS SOFT THROUGHOUTMOONLIGHT IGNORED FOR THIS TARGET
SET UP 22:30 · OBSERVE 23:00–01:00 · 2H · MEAN 60

Tolerates soft seeing, but high cloud wrecks a wide frame and moonlight raises the background everywhere.

23010305
CLOUD RETURNS 01:00
SET UP 22:30 · OBSERVE 23:00–01:00 · 2H · MEAN 49

Needs conditions to hold still for hours. Sustained transparency matters more than any single good hour.

23010305
CLOUD RETURNS 01:00
SET UP 22:30 · OBSERVE 23:00–01:00 · 2H · MEAN 65

Naked eye, whole sky. Total cloud and moonlight are the only things that count.
