noctilucent clouds
« on: June 30, 2008, 12:15:43 AM »
NLC ALERT: Observers in England are reporting a bright display of noctilucent clouds--in progress now. "The mixture of wave formations and complex patterns was just fantastic!" says Kain Prestwood of Shropshire. If the clouds persist, they might be visible later this evening in Canada and southern Alaska. If you live in those areas, be alert for NLCs. June 29th photos: #1, #2.

WHERE ARE THE CANADIAN NLCs? Noctilucent cloud (NLC) activity is intensifying. In the past two weeks, vivid electric-blue waves and tendrils have been sighted in Russia, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Denmark, Germany, the Czech republic, England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Latitudes between 50o and 56o north have been favored with particularly bright displays. And that raises a question: Where are the Canadian NLCs? (continued below)
