Clear Sky Clock (Echo Bay and Red Rocks) are both hideous for tonight.  Satellite images are no better.  I doubt there will be any decent viewing tonight.

As I've already decided not to go anywhere, I've been sweating in my garage trying to get the club's 24 incher in operation.  If I can get clearing to the north (unlikely with the Sheep Range there, generating thunderstorms) I hope to focus in on Polaris and see if my collimation worked.
