  • March 5

    March 5: 64th day of the year and 6th day of the lunar cycle.
    The sunset will occur at 6:23 and rise at 6:52; length of night*: 12hr, 30min.
    Tonight in the southern sky, the moon meets Jupiter with Taurus’s famous orange star Aldebaran below them. The moon will set at 1:48 AM and rise again at 10:33 AM, having passed its first quarter of this cycle at 9:31 AM tomorrow morning.
    Today is Ash Wednesday. On this date in 1950 calculations for the first computerized (ENIAC) weather forecast began.

    *The author would like to note, that the sunset/sunrise info given in the March 3 update was incorrect due to human error interpreting the Almanac’s system presenting the information. The actual sunset/sunrise times for that day were 6:20 PM and 6:55 AM; length of night: 12hr, 35min.

    So the nights have only shortened five minutes over the past three days, not the nine that would be presumed had one calculated based on this erroneous info. The author deeply regrets any harm this incorrect reporting may have caused you, your families, your animals, or your plants.

    ** Shit! Today’s sunset is at 6:22. This is Ogden from the Farmer’s Almanac. Too many tables and dates and numbers.c. Too many tables and dates and numbers.
