GRABBING SOME CLEAR SKY

We finally had clear skies yesterday, and the temps actually hit 50!!!!! I took advantage of the situation and got in some imaging before the fog rolled in around 8:30 last night... No meteors, but a couple of aircraft flew overhead.

This first video shows a helicopter's spotlight glaring into my all-sky camera, and the still image created by the software.

The second video is an airplane. (I had two cameras going at once, so the 2nd still image shows the plane's track just below the constellation Gemini.

MOONDOG MINUTE: January 12

Snow Pan

Well, the snow has stopped, then the rains came and the rivers flooded. Now, the rain has let up and the rivers are starting to recede. You have probably seen our situation here in Washington state on the news. Fortunately, my neighborhood seems to survive these kinds of storms pretty well. Here is a brief video panorama taken from my front porch, while the snow was still around.....

Clouds clear, Vega shines!!!

This is a time-lapse video of the clouds above my location between 3:30 a.m.- 7:00a.m. The bright star at the top after the clouds clear is Vega.
