Seeing 6 out of 10. Very hot, extremely humid, very hazy. Classic Washington, DC bowl of soup weather. Very dim image due to haze, so didn't even try to use filters. Solis Lacus quite dark, firmly attached to Nectar and Mare Erthraeum. Light area between Erythraeum and Achillis Pons, almost appeared as light/hazy clouds. Very faint markings near Arcadia.
