If you are in Alaska and you can read this (except rainy places like Ketchikan) you probably have a good light show going right now. Step away from the computer and have a look

The lights were pretty sweet. No lights last night, but there were a lot of meteorites.
Kraken, get up here. Here's a link that normally seems to be accurate about predictions:

I know this isn't dive related, but neither is snowboarding. If you are at Alyeska today, I'll see ya up. It'll be blowing today if the predictions are right, but 8-10" doesn't sound bad.
I was driving to the radio station a couple of hours ago and a moose blocked my path. He wouldn't move. I ended up being 15 minutes late but the other folks were a no show altogether. Oh well!
I love this state!

I have been lucky enough to see the three best shows in the last 50 years, so say the light experts. Un frikkin real! The good news is that solar activity is suppoed to be going up through 2011 I think is what I read. More betta light shows! I like to grab a beer and a pillow, put on my skiff suit and lay on hte eck watching untill they go away.The Kraken:

According to the Aurora web site I'm right under the display. But, we are overcast which is a mixed event. Aurora not visible but temp is up to nearly 0F.
Now if those of you in SE would just send some snow before my sewer pipe freezes I'd be grateful. Might even buy you the beverage of your choice when I come down next time.
