All Activity

Fire is always a good enough reason.

It’s like the old joke… “I can’t wait for summer in Vermont. Last year it was on a Tuesday.”

Battery expansion. Need a new battery, fellow Toledo'n

If the smoke stays out of it, then this should be helpful: https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/aurora-30-minute-forecast

Looks like a fail . Can't see it if you don't look I guess.

Can you give me some other reason to sit by the fire and drink beer later than I should? Thanks in advance...

Boo!

Kp 4 Bz meh Fail so far

I guess it's kind of a get out to a dark spot and hope situation lol. From what I can gather reading around, its waning but there may be instances of pulsed activity.

Nothing?

Golfball and baseball size hail tonight at my sisters’ place outside Dallas. Ouch.

So what's with the northern lights for tonight? Clear as a bell right now.

If you look at the HRRR smoke model and make an reasonable interpretation through 48 hours, looks like we get the worst of the smoke on starting late Tuesday into Wednesday. This is 1PM Tuesday, with all that stuff steadily heading west...

TL;DR = The unusually late-in-the-season SSWE fucked up the upper level pattern.

SpaceWeatherLive should give ya enough info. Anecdotally I feel like Kp7 = good cameras can get it in the dark sky zones. Kp8 > and anyone should look. Kp5 rn is uninspiring. Bz needs to be lower too.

We’ve had warmer days in early April. It’s F’ing chilly out there today. Did someone leave the giant fridge open by accident this morning?

Anybody have a good site for space weather?

Another beautiful day and evening.

Hail tonight in Arlington was golf ball with a few baseball size piecesat my sister’s place. New roof for them for sure.

Looking east at sunset tonight.

You know your Vermont.

49.8 with an 8:17 sunset

Looks like Lake Willoughby.

You can probably still get in two or three holes.
