TGIF -Aurora…

The solar mass ejection of recent months is giving some Aurora. AKA Northern lights,Southern Lights, are active this year and beauty and observance aside the effects of solar particles going past the poles can be dramatic on our planet.

Reflects sun light.

The crowns of the globe are sometimes resplendant with reflecting solar particals.This has a cooling effect on the earth, similar to the presence of sulfur from volcanic eruptions, the mix of charged elements in our environments makes for a soup of chemical energy and mass interaction.

NASA

There are numbers of agencies that do science in the grip of our existance; one is the National Aeronautical and Space Administration. This US government organization along with NOAH are the main drivers of knowledge of earth and space science.

Solar eclipse,tommarow…

There is a NASA live showing of a total solar eclipse, Saturday Dec 4 2021 1:30 AM eastern time.

Canada data…

We like Stats can, Environment Canada,and others for good data

Facts are facts, opinions you are on your own for.

Weather and Climate not the same.

So so many variables that go in to making our climate, being out of our control make an imperative to be informed and knowledgeable with a repository of data. These are the right forums to do this. As most of us get our information through the media there is a mix of entertainment in the brew. This should be discounted and noted when coming to a position for or against community actions that creep up around events. Good luck as you participate in the economics and community of beings depended on weather as it is puffed in markets and entertainment.

We have compassion and brotherhood, sisterhood, inclusion in your grief, you’re suffering, and your partnership. Also in the joy and laughter of life when we have the Liberty of being at ease in a responsible manner. So once again join us in our humanity as we go forward to the best of our ability without harm or malice.

Partial eclipse:

The moon will try another step in its dance with the shadow of our earth today at 00:57.27 AM, Pacific Daylight Time. A full lunar eclipse can only happen with a full moon. The moon appears full for a number of days each cycle every month, however, it is only completely full for a number of hours in each cycle. This can allow for a partial eclipse such as the one today. The 97 % and change eclipse will start at 10:00 PM PST on the 18th and end at 4:06 AM on the 19th

A lunar eclipse can only take place during the full moon. During a partial lunar eclipse, the Moon is partially covered by the shadow of the Earth and starts changing color to copper-red. This partial lunar eclipse will be visible in North, Central and South America, Asia and Australia. In Europe and Africa it will be partially visible. It can’t be seen in the Middle and Near East. It will be the longest partial lunar eclipse since the 15th century.

More energic time, re sun…

In 2019 the sun started an 11-year sunspot cycle according to NASA. We just had a mass ejection on the sun and there is still a chance to see some energetic green aurora this weekend.

The strongest part of the storm and the best time to see the Northern Lights is expected to arrive between 5 and 8 p.m. ET on October 30, according to the NOAA’s predictions.

Source

If the northern lights can be seen tonight, it will be low on the horizon. The rotation of the earth makes it hard to predict.
