No wind tonight, temperature was +15C (session from 0230-0530). After having problems getting focused, I imaged M76 from 0400-0505, then did some test shots of various objects in Andromeda until the sky got too bright. Then I did some visual planetary observing (Jupiter, Saturn, Venus). I saw Sirius once again this morning -- summer is pretty much over once it makes its return to the sky at dawn!
