ESPECIALLY BECAUSE IT’S SO CLEAR RIGHT NOW. YEAH, IT WAS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IT DURING THE 730 NEWSCAST LAST NIGHT AS EVERYBODY WAS TELLING US, GO OUTSIDE AND TAKE A LOOK. IT REALLY WAS BEAUTIFUL FOR A SHORT TIME AND ESPECIALLY WITHOUT A CAMERA NOW, IT’S ALWAYS BEST TO GRAB YOUR PHONE AND TRY TO DO A SHORT TIME LAPSE AND YOU’RE ABLE TO SEE A BIT MORE OF THE COLOR UP THERE. THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION, THOUGH, IS YES, WE COULD SEE IT AGAIN TONIGHT, THOUGH IT IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE AS VIBRANT AND AS WIDESPREAD, BUT WE DON’T HAVE ANY CLOUDS OUT THERE. SO WITH A CLEAR SKY, THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE IF IT HAPPENS, YOU COULD SEE IT. BEST THING TO DO IS LOOK TO THE NORTH, LOW ON THE HORIZON. GET AWAY FROM CITY LIGHTS. ANOTHER THING TO CHECK OUT IN THE NIGHT SKY TONIGHT. THERE’S A COMET THAT’S VISIBLE. AND THIS ONE YOU WANT TO LOOK TO THE WEST RIGHT AFTER SUNSET. IT’S ONLY VISIBLE RIGHT AFTER SUNSET, AND THEN IT FADES AWAY BELOW THE HORIZON. AND OF COURSE, THE FORECAST FOR THAT ALSO LOOKS GOOD. MAINLY CLEAR. AND IT WILL MAKE ITS CLOSEST PASS TO EARTH TOMORROW NIGHT. AT THAT TIME. SO TRY IF YOU WANT TO, THIS EVENING AND TOMORROW EVENING, RIGHT AFTER SUNSET, TO TAKE A LOOK. AND WE HAVE GOOD VISIBILITY WITH NO CLOUDS. IT’S COMPLETELY CLEAR. TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE 50S NORTH. WE’VE GOT 60S. LOOK AT ROCHESTER AND MANCHESTER AT 68, STILL A BIT BREEZ

A comet that hasn’t been observed in tens of hundreds of years may well be visual within the New Hampshire sky this weekend.NASA just lately documented the comet’s first flyby of Earth.Scientists estimated this explicit comet, referred to as C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan–ATLAS, would possibly not be observed once more for 80,000 years.To test it out, make sure you glance within the western a part of the sky, low to the horizon, and in a while after sundown starting Saturday evening. It may well be visual for a couple of days after that, if the skies are transparent.Viewing stipulations glance nice in maximum spaces for seeing the comet within the Granite State. Saturday night time will probably be basically transparent. Clouds will begin to build up later within the night time and in a single day. It’ll be cloudy with rain Sunday night time, so the most efficient wager for viewing is Saturday night time.
