From Mike Leuthold

Bob,

    I've returned to astronomy after almost 30 year hiatus so I'm much more interested in the WRF cloud forecasts than I was previously.  It does a pretty good job normally.  Last night, it was forecasting clearing in the early evening thus I set up my equipment.  By about 8:30 the high clouds did move off to the east and I was able to take these images.
    The forecast for the next few days looks really bad as you have pointed out-WRF is forecasting frequent high clouds.  Too bad as the moon has just left the evening sky so it's perfect for astro-photography and observing. It will make for nice sunsets though.

Mike
