Can anyone explain how seeing conditions are rated? I have seen ratings of 1-10 on a number of parameters such as transparency, etc. I am logging Messier objects and would like to include have an entry for "seeing". Any pointers would be appreciated.

Check out the "How do I read it?" section on the Clear Sky Clock page for my area:

It has a brief synopsis of each facet of conditions as well as links to more detailed explanations.
