Scientific paper

Hopes were raised two years ago to be soon able to forecast observing conditions and thus efficiently adapt the scheduling of the observing blocks accordingly. In this brave new world, however, not everything is perfect: as if the task of building a detailed knowledge of the sites was not hard enough, climatic events such as the El Niño - La Niña Oscillation can turn decade long databases into poorly representative samples. A reanalysis of the long-term meteorological database pointed out an ever-in-creasing frequency of occurrence of bads seeing associated to a formerly quasi-inexistent NE wind direction.
