December 22 Very Cold To Mark The First Full Day Of Winter
December 22, 2024 Sunday Morning Report Today is the first full day of winter, and we will gain 2 additional seconds of daylight from yesterday. We will get full sun,…
Take a look at the sun. It was actually a little safer than normal yesterday. While I would never encourage you to stare at the sun unprotected, the dimming and enhanced color in the evening may be repeated for the morning sunrise and a few more sunsets as well.
July 19 brought more smoke from Canadian wildfires into our region high in the atmosphere. The haze became more noticeable in the afternoon and evening.
As the sun got lower towards the horizon, the light was filtered through the atmosphere, making for vivid orange and red orbs in the sky. This is similar to what we experienced back in the middle of last September. That time the smoke came from fires in the western US.
Check out these two views from Howard County.

In Gettysburg, PA Charlie Bury captured the scene over the historic battlefield.
If you want to plan to view this, you may be able to see really impressive colorful orbs within an hour after sunrise and before sunset.
During the day, the sun make take on a yellow-orange color against a smokey sky. There should be lower glare, highlighting the appears of a very round and sharp edge to the sun.
