"Mosly clear night, with a bank of clouds to the south/southeast. Clearing. Visible haze on the southern horizon over the Gulf as well as east and west. Above horizon transparency is moderate/good. One major light dome from Pascagoula dominates the northern horizon. This is part of the military ship yard. Out on the gulf there are several discrete lights from oil ships waitng to come into port. To the west is an elongated light dome, less intense than to the North. Milky Way is visible, especially early in the night when it is over the Gulf. Dust lanes visible overhead in Cygnus, moderate detial. However Milky Way loses contrast as it moves to the northern horizon and into the light dome, and Saggitarius sets."

"On Horn Island a half mile east of the ranger station. Mid island with a break in the high dunes to the north and some low dunes to the south just blocking the direct glare from the ships in the gulf. Very clear night with 1% cloud cover. Some low smoke to the north over the shipping yard. Some low clouds and haze to the southwest. Air is steady and seeing is good. Milky Way is easily seen at the end of astronimical twilight with Scutum and Sagittarius star clouds visible. Dust lanes ad some detail evident to the south up to Cygnus overhead. Most apparent light dome is the ship yard to the north in Pascagoula. 50 degrees across and 40 degrees wide. East is dark wuth some haze along the horizon. To the south, 6 large ships are off shore with lights on. To the west there is another lighdome easily visible, but not as intense as the ship yard."
