Too bad MA failed to pass even a modest curb for future light pollution: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/08/08/science/light-pollution-is-making-it-harder-to-see-stars/

Going to be cloudy and raining here, as is tradition.

Here's one I caught years back early morning though. I had set my camera in time lapse mode overnight just pointed out the patio door in hopes there's a cloud break and got lucky. I might do the same this year if I actually remember.
