We examine results of astroclimate observations carried out at Peak Terskol (the North Caucasus) from 1988 to 1991. The measurements were made with a coherent interferometer. The seeng at the Terskol site is characterized by the FWHM ≈ 1.2'' at the wavelength λ = 0.5 μm for 50% of the best observation time. The observation time with a cloud amount of 2 or less made 16% from all observation time, which amounts to 857 hours. The parameter βatm for Peak Terskol is compared to the results obtained by different authors by similar methods for the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory, SAO of the Russian Academy of Sciences (the North Caucasus), Maidanak and Sanglok (Central Asia). The recurrence of βatm ≤ 0.6'' under a clouds amount of ≤ 2 was estimated. This recurrence fluctuated in the interval 0...4.2% at the different periods.
