I imaged from Oshawa tonight with the MX9. The weather forecast called for the sky to cloud over around midnight, so I did an evening session. Although it didn't actually cloud over, the transparency was not good and seemed to get worse as the night went on. After imaging NGC 4565 and M 3, I packed it in for the night.

Temperature range was +8 to +4C. I saw the International Space Station pass by at 22:06, right on schedule! It was about as bright as Capella.
