Dave Mason 🇨🇦 @davemason.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Thanks.I don’t have a solar filter for my camera lens so no sunspots for me. Moon shots will have to do. If you do, please post photos. 😁 010
Dave Mason 🇨🇦 @davemason.bsky.social · 25/08/2026🌔 We're in a Waxing Gibbous phase — the Moon's about 87% lit and just four nights from turning Full. Keep an eye out this week too — the August Full Moon (the "Sturgeon Moon") lands August 28, and it comes with a partial lunar eclipse for parts of the country. Worth setting a reminder. #Astronomy 120

Dave Mason 🇨🇦 @davemason.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Hey downtown Calgary. Outflow boundary winds should be hitting you. Open windows facing north and northeast to cool your home down. Us here in the South will follow suit in the next few minutes when we notice the leaves on the trees move more aggressively. 😉 100
