Crisp Sunrise

Post by MapleRidge »

Hi everyone...

I have not had many clear sunrises of late, so it was nice to catch the sun as it rose this morning. I was out early to clear snow and grabbed this pic with my cell phone as the sun started to make an appearance:

It was also the coldest morning we have had so far this winter, but even -19C is a lot better than more seasonal January mornings :lol: Here is a shot of my weather station at the time I took the sunrise pic:

Keep warm Brian with that outside temperature - phew that is well freezing. I suspect you are used to it.

Excellent clear view and the image too.

Rainer, Alexandra, and Terry...

Thanks for the feedback on my sunrise this morning :bow

Terry...we have been spoiled by much warmer weather than usual this winter. We are in for a a few days of more 'normal' weather if the weather forecast is to be believed.

There was a lot of solar details this morning, but the seeing was not good at all in the cold.

Thanks again Brian.
Indeed the recent weather here in the U.K. for winter-months has been slightly warmer than should be, with far too much rain/flooding, but is now much colder with temps around freezing or below and the weather-radar is now showing snow converging from S.W.England and about to occur over my location in S.E.England at any moment.

Although I can't do any Solar-imaging at present, I will at least post a photo of that snow-fall...

Keep warm and well
Terry
