Just want to report that I had a spectacular view - of solid overcast from Northeast Storm Snowmageddon Whateverth.
And also a visit from a local Deputy who wondered 1) why I did not know there was a Winter Weather Advisory suggesting travel be limited, and 2) by the way what the heck was I doing out in the boonies at that time of night with a pair of binoculars pointed up at the sky. I think the first time I told him I was looking for an asteroid he thought I might be calling him a name.
But all was not lost. I can report that a pair of el cheapo 8x35 binos, that were stuffed in a box of something I had bought much like the prize is in a box of Cracker Jacks, do not fog internally when going in and out of a nice warm van.
stay safe.
