[Utah-astronomy] Starting to notice how horrible Utah skies are

I have been a lifelong resident of Utah, but until recently paid little attention to the sky. Recently I got my first scope and began noticing how often Utah has horrible skies for astronomy. Cloud cover almost every other day. And on the days the sky is clear, seeing is aweful. Is there no hope? _________________________________________________________________ NEW mobile Hotmail.
