NERD ALERT...the atmospheric heights will be SO LOW tonight, anyone living above 4,000 ft or so (hello top of Mount Washington) will be in a different atmospheric layer entirely, the stratosphere! This layer is typically 4-12 miles up, but tonight it will be less than a mile!

The jetstream is about to get all sorts of bent out of shape in the next week or two...this ups the chances of bigger and more impactful storms...no guarantee where they will form or which areas will be hit hardest but definitely a time frame to watch

Not sure what’s more impressive… an object 200,000 miles away (the Moon) is lining up perfectly with an object 93,000,000 miles away (the Sun) to produce a shadow over us today. Or, that scientists can predict this phenomenon with exact precision hundreds of years in advance.
