Florida Sundog: December 2011
http://floridasundog.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Halos, Rainbows, and Other Phenomenon in the First Coast. Saturday, December 31, 2011. I observed a fogbow this morning. A fogbow is essentially a rainbow, but the drops of water are so small diffraction robs it of color. The camera did not do it justice, the bow was an obvious white arc in the sky. Unsharp masking helps to make it visible. Note the dark edge inside it, this is part of a supernumerary. Monday, December 26, 2011. I got treated with a beautiful CZA on Christmas. CZA behind some altocumulus.

Florida Sundog: Archive- Odd radius halos
http://floridasundog.blogspot.com/2012/01/archive-odd-radius-halos.html
Halos, Rainbows, and Other Phenomenon in the First Coast. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. Archive- Odd radius halos. I've seen a few odd radius displays, though none were very spectacular. However, one during April 5th 2011 was good. It was a terrible thunderstorm in the morning and it pouring down rain and lightning was flashing everywhere. I decided not to take my camera, and you know what? It cleared up an around noon there was a 9° halo! As you can see, there are very noticeable odd radius. Awesome Inc...

Some more odd radii, the 18 degree halo is pretty well visible, (look to the left of the pine tree) the 9 degree is harder to detect. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Florida Sundog: November 2011
http://floridasundog.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Halos, Rainbows, and Other Phenomenon in the First Coast. Wednesday, November 30, 2011. Recently, there was a major front that passed over. Fronts are like air vacuums, cleaning the air. This happens because the dust in the air either forms cloud droplets or are absorbed by cloud droplets, the front then moves away with the dust or sends it back to the ground by rain. This is what happened, and the air is very clean. How can you tell? Friday, November 25, 2011. Pileus, Shadows, and Colors 8/17 2010.
