With a central pressure of 892 mb, the Category 5 storm is provisionally the joint third most intense Atlantic hurricane on record
Catastrophic sustained winds of 185 mph & intense rainfall bring a life-threatening situation

Fast solar winds bring the potential for aurora sightings tonight ✨
Parts of Scotland, northern England and Northern Ireland may get a glimpse where skies are clear enough
Look to the northern skyline in areas away from urban lights 🔭

I loved the whole juxtaposition that the Beach Boys introduced with respect to the British sounds that were a force then. Especially the Beatles of course. Just the brilliant kaleidoscope of the 60s

I don’t want to be here as an anti-X or overtly political thing. Certainly not as an angry thing. I want to be here for community, knowledge, humour and exchange of ideas. Is that too much to ask? Answers on a postcard please…

Tonight, the Strawberry Moon rises. 🌕🍓
Named by Native American tribes for the ripening of wild strawberries.
Anglo-Saxons named it the Mead Moon, when meadows were cut for hay, to sweeten the mead of midsummer feasts.
It's our last full moon of spring.

I attended a virtual funeral for a dear friend today. She was and is so loved. The overall message was to do something beautiful. So if you needed a reminder, here it is. it. Do something beautiful today. For yourself. For others. For those you've loved and lost. Pay it forward.

Tonight, look for May's full moon: the Milk Moon. 🌕🐄
An Anglo-Saxon name, it nods to a time when cows were milked three times daily thanks to lush spring pastures.
Its Native American names, Flower Moon, & Budding Moon, also celebrate spring's abundance.

Bird migration is one of nature’s greatest wonders...
Epic journeys across oceans, deserts and continents, guided by instinct and the pull of the seasons.

The modern day word is ‘vance’.
Word of the day is ‘lickspittle’ (17th century): a person who fawns upon someone in power for personal gain.
