It's The Snow Moon!

• It was named by Native Americans of the North Country because of the heavy snow that usually falls this time of year ... not this February.  But the clear sky is providing us with some beautiful sights - the rising moon shining like a spotlight through the trees!  
• Speaking of the heavens, the sun once again has spots on its surface.  This is good news for the return of the Aurora Borealis, also called Northern Lights.  

The world probably won't come to an end on 12/21/12, caused by a catastrophic solar storm but we may have some awesome displays!  Keep an eye on the northern sky for the pulsing red and green glow of the Aurora Borealis - they're coming back!
