The smoke is headed east. It will mainly stay above the surface but look for a white sky instead of a blue one across the NE USA.
Note the smoke that is being blown across Southern California and into the Pacific. A thin layer covers thousands of square kilometres over the Pacific tonight.
Here is an image from GOES WEST in the last ten minutes. This is the day fire channel. Those are BIG fires. Note the Cascades fires are also really hot. I see two fires in Oregon.
America’s best Christian loses his seat in congress despite that perfect jesus approved Xmas card.
Wow. Look at the smoke over the west tonight from Texas to Oregon and north ton Alberta, BC and Saskatchewan. Even into Manitoba. Dense plume from Washington to Montana and into Canada.
Look at the pall of smoke over the western USA tonight. Huge fires visible as well.
After visiting Copenhagen, Helsinki, and Stockholm this week and talking with our guides who live there, I understand why these places are number one in quality of life in virtually all surveys.
The sky off of Helsinki right now at 2054. I’m on the same time zone as St. Petersburg in Russia. 80 miles at most from the Russian border.
It’s now light enough to get a good view of the smoke from GOES19. It’s horrible.
I ordered extra ice here in Southampton (hot day). That’s what I got.
How hot is it in the UK? A view from Salisbury. Not the city I live in (Maryland) but the one in Wiltshire.
In spite of 28C right now, there is still no place like London.
To my followers in the true north strong and free… HAPPY CANADA DAY! My pic in Victoria last July.
Reading William Shirer’s Berlin Diary and the similarities between that Germany and today in America are scary.
The clueless comment of the month award. A winner halfway through!!
A major CME along with an X Class (X1) flare on the Sun Wednesday. The plasma event is Earth directed according to NOAA models late Wednesday and should arrive at Earth late Thursday evening. A display of the aurora lights is likely but the magnitude of the event is very hard to predict.
Books banned by the Knoxville School Board. Make sure to sneak one to a kid. If parents are evangelical then I’d suggest places they can hide it as well. If you have a little free library, put a few of these in it.
I get complaints along the lines of “Why are talking about politics all the time?” I’m not. I don’t care that much about politics. I love science, history, travel… BUT I will LOUDLY stand up against Racism, Bigotry, misogynistic behaviour, and especially anyone who makes fun of the disabled.
The apartment we are staying in here in Firenze in Italy was once part of the home of Lisa Gioconda (look her up if you don’t know her). I just noticed this ceiling upstairs. Faded paint of the renaissance? Probably.
If you think that the fuel prices are going to have any effect on trump’s support, guess again. LBJ got it right 50 plus years ago. Trump’s support is not in spite of the bigotry and racism. It’s BECAUSE of it. His supporters will just come up with another false reason to say why they support him.
