Yes - just did this on my local machine. The old function takes 0.4933785000030184 seconds to run 10 times and the version in the PR takes 0.9015975999936927 seconds to do the same. |

I feel like this if and try should move down and use ispandas, optional cleanup.

Untested, and I suspect this will fail - clear_sky is a Series of different length than times so it can't get indexed by times.

Just added a test for this in test_clearsky.py
Changed clear_sky back to clearsky

This line should be test_tools, that will fix the doc build error.
