Tonight's outlook
The next 24 hours, without the guesswork
A deterministic viewing score, a recommended window, and the weather that could change the plan. All times are local to Stockholm.
Viewing score
Cloud-weighted, per hour
Poor
Score reflects cloud, altitude and darkness.
Not a scientific measurement. The index favours a Moon that is easy to see, not necessarily the sharpest surface detail.
Best time to look
Best contiguous window in the next 24 hours
No qualifying window
No two-hour window clears 50/100. Best single hour: 22:00 · Poor (39/100)
A window requires at least two consecutive hours with a score of 50 or better and the Moon above the horizon.

Why this recommendation
- Waxing Gibbous at 79% illumination. The terminator gives the strongest crater shadows for the next few nights.
- The Moon climbs to about 26° around 22:00.
- Next moonrise: Thu 22 Oct at 16:17.
Limitations & methodShowHide
- The Moon stays low, so buildings, trees and haze may block the view.
- The viewing score is a convenience index, not a scientific measurement of sky quality.
- The Moon disc on this page is phase-correct but its orientation and surface detail are schematic; libration and parallactic angle are not modelled.
