Hi Folks;

Another Venus UV shot with C8 @ 5,000 mm with televue 2.5x, Schuler UV

filter, Grasshopper 16 bit mono camera.

There are some faint darker areas, in different positions than Feb 8th

image are.  From what I've found online, the clouds complete a

rotation of Venus about every 4 days, whereas the planet completes a

single rotation every 243 earth days.

It has stopped snowing now and the CSC suggest it should clear off by

5 pm tonight. The NAM 300 mb wind forecast is looking really good for

the next 3 days, with Alberta in the pink's and purples.

TTYL..
