A LUNAR ECLIPSE, YARD WORK & BODY SURFING!
Luckily we didn’t have the clouds around this evening and that made for great viewing of a lunar eclipse. The moon rose in the east around 6:20 PM. For the next hour or so the moon went from a pale orangey reddish crescent shape to a bright white disc as it popped out from the shadow of the earth. If you happened to snap a picture please send it our way. We would love to put a few on the website!
With a ridge building in the west, and a series of beautiful warmer days ahead, I along with many others I’m sure am thinking about yard work. The problem is that I have plenty of inside jobs to do and my wife wishes I would finish those first but, how can you when there’s blue crisp sunshine outside…oh well, I’ll try to do both!
The long range pattern is looking rather quiet and our next shot of rain does not look to come in along with a jet packing 180mph winds, meaning that the threat of severe weather appears low. It almost feels like a series of waves have passed through ending with a monster and now we’re in a temporary lull; reminiscent of watching waves at a beach or better yet, body surfing them. There’s always a wait and then a series of waves come in and they usually ramp up to one good one and then it’s time to wait again. We’re in the waiting period.
