The once in a lifetime event came and went without any of our participants being able to check off the block. We had quite a few stalwart attendees hopeful of seeing the transit. However, the weather did not cooperate at all. The best view any of us had was just at setup. There was a light cloud cover that did not interfere at all with seeing the sun spots that were visible on the sun’s surface. But, the weather very slowly got worse throughout the event with a light sprinkle of rain sending most of the telescopes for shelter.
Well, maybe the weather will be better on December 11, 2117.
