Well I had some scar tissue lasered off of my left corneal implant yesterday and I see that the atmospheric conditions the last 2 weeks were probably better than I thought,the wind chill hovers around 14 deg f but it is VERY clear and steady here in NJ this morning .I observed a lot of "orange peel" on the disk and two nice filamentary structures both with orange flaring inside of them.
