Thanks Alan, I will gladly sacrifice sleep entirely for one morning of such seeing.

Being as it will be cloudy all weekend I restacked my data choosing only the best 100 frames and also going more lightly on the sharpening.  I think the new image is much better, smaller details are much more distinct.

Looks good Jim. A couple of nights earlier the seeing was superb. I had about three minutes to enjoy a Florida-esque view of Jupiter before the scope dewed up like a soda can out of the icebox.

best,

Alan

I've been using Milton's link to the Unisys 300mb wind charts to confirm CSC predictions, this morning looked promising but still not great.

I think this has been the best seeing so far but I'm still holding out for the holy grail.
