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 02:00 · OBSERVE 02:30–04:30 · 2H · MEAN 42

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

22000204
HIGH CLOUD CLEARS 02:30CLOUD RETURNS 04:30
SET UP 01:00 · OBSERVE 01:30–04:30 · 3H · MEAN 46

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

22000204
CLOUD RETURNS 04:30MOONLIGHT IGNORED FOR THIS TARGET
SET UP 03:00 · OBSERVE 03:30–04:30 · 1H · MEAN 36

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

22000204
CLOUD RETURNS 04:30
NO USABLE WINDOW FOR THIS TARGET TONIGHT

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

CLOUD NEVER DROPS BELOW 58%
SET UP 02:00 · OBSERVE 02:30–04:30 · 2H · MEAN 41

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