Cancel Saturn Saturday :-(

[Jane Houston Jones]

We've been watching the weather forecasts and satellite images all day 
and unfortunately, the clouds and rain predicted for tonight are 
beginning to arrive.  I can see the bands of clouds on the western 
horizon already.  So we're officially cancelling our Saturn viewing for 
tonight.  Luckily, we'll plenty more viewing opportunities in the coming 
weeks and months. 

If you enjoy weather watching, the National Weather Service website is 
fascinating.  http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/lox/ 

We have a link to a local weather page from our Old Town Sidewalk 
Astronomers wepage, too, right next to where we cancelled tonight's 
event.  http://www.otastro.org/

You can watch the storm as it nears on this infrared satellite loop

Sorry, we'll rescheule.  Jane and Mojo
