Once in a Blue Moon coming up on Friday
You likely have heard of the term, “once in a blue moon”. That term refers to something that doesn’t happen very often. The term originated from astronomy when you have the second full moon in a calendar month. Typically you only have one full moon during a single calendar month. Though sometimes February won’t have 2 full moons because it’s so short. This month is the rare month that we have 2 full moons in the same calendar month. We had a full moon back on August 1st and now we will have a 2nd on August 31st.
Why I still love staring at the sky
Those who know me well know that since the age of 6 I have had a fascination with weather. I would stare at the sky for hours on end and was just utterly fascinated with every aspect of how and why weather happened. I’ve been extremely lucky to turn that passion and fascination into a career which I enjoy immensely. Though as my TV career has gone on I find myself staring at computer screens more than the sky…. I miss looking at the sky. I still find myself doing it at odd times walking in and out of work. Much to the bewilderment of co-workers getting out of their cars. LOL Read more 
Get ready for another Supermoon this Saturday
Like last years supermoon on March 19th which was a big hit among sky watchers. This Saturday there will be an equally amazing sight as the biggest full moon of the year will occurred at 11:35 EDT. Another rare treat will occur Friday night as the annual Eta Aquarid meteor showers will be peaking. Though the supermoon will far out shine the meteor shower.
