39ºF + 99% Full Moon + Clouds

Quite the recipe for a bracing and brisk and beautiful night!

But wait, there’s more!

Blow up the image to full size and you’ll see Orion just to the right and below the center. And the “V” (pointed to the right) of Taurus just under the Moon, in that notch in the clouds.

And of course, even if you didn’t blow the image up to full size, that really bright object just off of the left edge is Jupiter.

Wouldn’t it be neat to just lay out on a lawn chair and watch for a couple of hours? Preferably in a thick, down-filled sleeping bag. 39ºF now, headed toward 32ºF before dawn.

Nippy!
