This work deals with the applicability of a star photometer to retrieve precipitable water vapor (W) at night-time by means of direct irradiance from stars using a 940 nm narrowband filter. Retrievals are assessed with simultaneous data from a Raman lidar system and linked with day-time values from a sun photometer using measurements taken from
