Y'all... Once again, Toronto gets the special Jonas Brothers events. Being the large Canadian city, it *feels* like Toronto is "nearby" and should be like a place for "hometown shows" but then reality of having to travel with a weeks' notice across Canada in December sets in...

Truly awesome! Let's cross our fingers for another break in the clouds tonight, eh? ✨

Wow! The Burke-Gaffney Observatory all-sky camera @smuhalifax.bsky.social captured the brief surge in aurora last night when the sky lit up RED by-eye. The camera is black & white, but we can see the band of aurora start in the north (bottom) and work its way southward, before the clouds took over 🤯

My family in IL saw aurora towards the north horizon on their phone cameras in the middle of the city just now (and we're fully clouded over in Halifax...)

If you have clear dark skies tonight.... Check for aurora in the sky!!!!

After the Cubs were eliminated earlier this month, I became a Blue Jays Bandwagon-er with all the rest of Canada. An incredible post-doc in the astro/phys dept made this Blue Jay costume last night(!!) and its perfect, esp with tonight's Game 6/Halloween combo. Go Jays! Baseball! Sports! 🐦⚾

For those interested, it took me 5 minutes to get down 24 storeys during this fire alarm in SMU's Loyola Residence. 7 steps a time, around and around and around and 😵‍💫
