Deat Furiends,
Have you ever heard of light pillars? (I hadn’t and strongly doubt they can be found in Florida.) You see, light pillars appear when light (either natural or artificial)bounces off ice crystals floating close to the ground…. we don’t get that this close to the tropics. In this case of this photo from North Bay, Ontario , the air was cold enough to so that the ice crystals formed in the air and the pillars you see are light reflected from the city’s lights.
Unless we get a massive climate change, I doubt I will ever see this amazing sight in purrson. However, I bet my dear brofur, Kosmo might be able to see light pillars some super-cold day next winter.
Mr. M
We will look for them this winter. North Bay is a ways north of here, but sometimes we see the Northern Lights. Thanks for letting us know. Snoops and Kommando

I am sure you have a better chance of seeing these than I do…. If only they didn’t require cold weather, I would have a chance! =^.^=

Too far south, here on this opposite side of the ocean! What a pity! That must be an extraordinary experience to see light pillars 😛

So the northern lights are the only beautiful trick cold and ice can perform with light!

Can you imagine how magical the Arctic regions must look with their spectacular light shows?!? I was already impressed with those magnificent Northern Lights, but pillars of light, too!!! My fur is tingling and I’m envying Kosmo, my dear brofur, who lives in Finland… his sky view must be amazing. =^.^=

Dear brother, Mr.M, we have never seen these in Finland. I have to do some research, is it possible to see them here.

Yes, it is possible to see them here, but we have never seen them. They look really beautiful, maybe next winter we will see them.

You have snow, which give you better odds of seeing such an amazing site…. you also have prettier flowers and amazing birds…. I think I’d like to live in Finland. =^.^=
