Stars of June have arrived, but clouds prevail in the evenings for the week ahead. Very possible we’re going to miss this one, but check here for daily updates – maybe skies will decide to cooperate. Meanwhile, charts for the month are posted below for anyone with a break in the cloud cover, along with instructions for how to tell time by the stars of the Dipper. Give it a try if opportunity presents.
