Greetings fellow astrophiles,
The current models indicate that auroral activity tonight will not be significant for Central New York and, if it does pick up, it won’t until at least 2 a.m.
Therefore, CNYO won’t be hosting any official session at Happy Valley (as was reported on the recent syracuse.com article) and will instead wait for fantastic pictures from (1) Canadian observers or (2) CNY observers who decided to brave it only to find the predictions were inaccurate and the aurora were fantastic. Either way, we won’t know until tomorrow morning.
We’ll post any updates over the next several days, else will hope to see people at a Jupiter/Venus Conjunction on or near June 30th (currently finalizing a Syracuse location). Stay tuned!
