Stargazing tonight in Caracas

Caracas sits in a mountain valley where orographic cloud often hugs the hills while coastal Vargas stays clearer. Elevation helps transparency when trade-wind haze stays below the ridge.

Dry-season nights after a Caribbean front can open excellent tropical Milky Way windows.
