irishbri74 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Anyone know what time would be the best shot to see the auroras borealis tonight? After sunset. Probably 10-3am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronCat Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Later is always better, but one of the aurora websites says it's also sometimes seen in the early hours after sunset or similarly just before dawn. Two good websites are http://www.aurora-service.org/ and http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/30-minute-aurora-forecast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you want to stop winter only half way through our best snow month?!well usually Presidents' Day is around the 20th so it's over half the month. I just hate how it could be 25 and epic melting will start cause of sun angle increase. I would rather a snowy December over february. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the sun begins to be a problem around mid February, but our climo for snow especially in the first half of December is just not great. I'll take snow when I can get it!

Parsley Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 No, I'm saying I would rather have the snow avg of feb in dec. like swap months. That's why 09'-10' was so great...all that snow that winter which started for areas NW of Philly in early December then by late February it was over abruptly and we had a quick start to spring with temp departures +5 to +7 in March and April. Dec 5th to Feb 26th....I'd sign up for that time range any year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronCat Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah, Kp falling off as the storm passes, but the prediction map on the NOAA/ POES site still shows a decent possibility for tomorrow night as well. Oh, to be in Canada tonight! -- There should be some great pics available tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dec 5th to Feb 26th....I'd sign up for that time range any year. Yeah I'd take the '09-10 temps over this year's that's for sure, along with the quick thaw. And the snow even had a thaw between waves which was nice. I wouldn't take those back to back snowfall totals followed by cold temps again though. Snow lover or not, water coming in through the roof from ice damming and no easy way to get through the piles to the roof is not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherOrNot Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Tom: FYI, the link to the Celcius article on the FB page seems to be broken. Going by just the subject, agree with the premise. I never minded Celcius being based on water, but the lack of gradient range without resorting to decimal notation (which few outside the science world that use C seem to do.) And to make it as specific of decimal notated Fahrenheit, you'd need a lot of significant figures. Never liked C. K is ideal, it's a shame nobody uses it in the general public. Edit: It looks like it's working now. It went to a weird error page before, now it goes to a security warning click-through which takes you to the page.
