See you tonight, Saturday, November 14, 2015, for a star party (finally!) under clear skies at Merryspring in Camden! By way of full disclosure, some sources forecast difficult, high winds, so we’ll either hope it stays calm, or we’ll find a sheltered corner of Merryspring to do the best we can. Perfect nights are rare in Maine, so we’ll accept tonight as about as good as it gets. Dress for winter. It is certain to be cold.
HAIR DRIERS
Those with hair dryers and/or long, outdoor rated extension cords, bring them. Skippy Sky reports some risk of dewing:
