Last night’s Lunar Eclipse was …

Spectacular!

The Lunar Eclipse came right on schedule and lasted a full 51 minutes. Living in Maine, the skies are not as bright at night as large cities. The darkened Full Moon made the stars shine last night. It was a treat to be repeated in December 2010.

At the start of the Farmers’ Almanac ‘08 release we said that New England and the Great Lakes would get “pounded” with snow. We also indicated that lots of snow would come out of Colorado. I think I saw that there was some snow outside of Los Angeles last month. But, the sheer number of storms and mixture with heavy rain has made ‘07 -’08 a winter to remember.

Unfortunately, I don’t see the winter weather pattern changing too soon. But, the sun is out later and the temps are beginning to creep up ever so slowly.
