The year's most spectacular light show is going on tonight. If the sky is clear where you are, grab a coat and a cup of hot cocoa, and go watch the Geminid meteor shower. Going to a rural area with little light pollution makes a tremendous difference. Also, waiting until after the moon sets helps quite a bit as well.

I wish I could see it, but alas it's snowing like something else here right now. I usually LOVE snow.. but not right now.

Nope. Cold, overcast, and sprinkling/raining here. It's like Seattle in April.

Sucks.

This is one of those times living 10 minutes from a city really sucks.

A message from Salt Lake City's winter air to me and my fellow Wasatch Front Oppos: "Hey humans! You like clean air so you can breathe and see and all that shit, don't you? Well, you can all go fuck yourselves!"

The sky is rarely visible during the winter except after a storm, which cleans things up for a little while :(

Whoa, I didn't realize how bad it can get there sometimes!

Hm. It's too cold here for those shenanigans. It's currently -4 F or -20C with 35 km/h winds.
