Hi Robin,
I’m observing from a location next to the “Beisbroek” forest in Bruges, Belgium, so local time here is UT+2h. Last days we had very clear nights with excellent seeing, but now the weather is changing on cloudy and rainy with thunderstorms coming over. Perhaps the second half of next week will be the next opportunity to observe. Unfortunately until mid July we must undergo the annual period of the so called “gray nights” or twilight nights. Fortunately the beginning of August will give enough dark nights to register the start of the VVCep eclipse!
Kind regards,
Marc.
