Seeing a red moon near the horizon isn't all that unusual.

Notable, but no more so than a full moon.

Seeing a red moon way up in the sky is something different altogether.

Walking the dogs on a decidedly not-foggy evening in haze that looks but doesn't act like fog or mist - very unusual. This is hardly the first time this century that smoke from wildfires out west have drifted all the way east to us, but I can't recall haze like this before.

Just another freak weather event, nothing to worry about!

I really hate that there are so many fires that the haze is drifting to the east coast. (sigh)

OTOH, seeing the moon haze yellow by clouds is striking when you're looking at it through a curtain of pounding rain and hail, as we did during last night's microburst.
