    I can do a long range forecast right now that’ll be more accurate than Met.ie long range.

    It’ll be wall to wall cloud from the 5th of August to the 19th of August :D:D

    EDIT: Just a thought, but would the top of Killiney Hill around the Obelisk be high enough to counteract the city light pollution on a clear night like last night? Could walk up there from where I am!

    Any kind of height will help but in terms of light pollution you will have to see when up there, no telling how good it will/can be :(

    There was a photo I seen of Neowise on a Facebook group taken in Wicklow looking into Dublin. The comparison of the sky will give a good indication of the quality from anywhere in Dublin.

    Do you know the date of this pic? Very good in any case

    The Wicklow Mountains are fantastic for observing........unless you want to look at anything in the Northern Sky :D

    Sucks to be a North County Dublin observer though as you lads and lassies need to make longer trip south to the Wicklow mountains to put Dublin behind your observing backs.

    Just a 10 minute drive to the back of the Sugar Loaf for me in Bray.
