I’ve been doing some beta testing of their mobile app, and it’s been great!
big news from CoCoRaHS world: the new mobile app is now available, and it's also a mobile version of the website. Very slick for entering your obs & viewing data.

I bet a large fraction of new followers here are not CoCoRaHS observers, no better time than now to join!

Today would have been Carl Sagan's 90th birthday. How fitting that he predicted the current state of our country almost 30 years ago. Worth reading. Happy Birthday, Carl. We miss you. 💙
