No editing. The Florida night sky seems different from anything I’ve seen before in Europe.
Florida is the only place so far where I’ve seen a literal halo around the moon at night. It was as if the sun’s rays reflected off the moon had cleared the atmosphere around it.
There’s obviously some fancy science term for that, but we had something “less smart” we used to call it as kids. There was some “old ways” thing we were taught that depending on how many stars were caught in that halo was how many days until the next rain…. Maybe someone else will shed some better info, but your comment reminded me of that!
Possibly the corona phenomenon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_(optical_phenomenon)
Yup, that’s it. I remember now being told it was ice crystals or something that caused the effect
