Combining weather predictions is impossible even for a professional weather forecaster. 

 

Suggestion.... at the time of the posted ISS flyby, stick your head outdoors and take a peek.

Hi Colin,

I download the local Hamilton, Ontario ISS flyover information from the NASA website. Only those ISS flyovers that can be observed unaided from the ground in and around the Hamilton area are being posted. RASC Hamilton Centre website has Environment Canada clear sky information for at least two nights in advance. With both sources of information, members can decide for themselves whether conditions are good enough to observe the ISS flyovers.

Clear skies,

Ron

Hey Ron,Thanks for sending.It would be helpful if you correlated the flyovers with clear-sky data, so we knew which ones were likely to be seen.CheersC   _______________________________________________astronomers mailing listastronomers at hamiltonrasc.cahttp://hamiltonrasc.ca/mailman/listinfo/astronomers_hamiltonrasc.ca
