Title: Go look at the halo around the sun now!
Post by: SilverZ06 on April 16, 2014, 12:23:57 PM
There is a halo that can been seen around the sun right now (At least here in Tampa, Florida). Go take a look and let me know if you can see it. It is beautiful!

doesn't this have something to do with ice crystals in the air?

I am serious, I am not an astronomer nor a meteorologist. I have already seen pictures from people on the other side of the state from me (100+ miles) so I do not know how far it can be seen. What is funny about that?

that sucks, it was beautiful.  I dont recall ever seeing a halo like that. It is gone now. I'll have to look it up when I get home so learn more about it.

Cause that's where the fun is?

I think she meant the sun. Just wondering, does this explain the lack of mirrors in your home?
