Abstract
This article examines several meteorological parameters that influence astronomical observations at Maidanak astronomical observatory: the amount of nighttime with clear and partly cloudy weather in mountainous areas, and the speed and direction of wind in the surface layer. Based on ground-based observations at Uzhydromet meteorological stations, an analysis of the dynamics of meteorological parameters over a long period (1981-2020) was conducted and a comparison of these values with other locations in Uzbekistan. Trends in time series changes in the ratio of clear and partly cloudy weather at night to the total amount of nighttime were examined using the statistical nonparametric Mann-Kendall test
