Hi Pascal and others,
That 9th Nov sounds great. But do you mean Greenler's diffuse anthelic
arcs,
which are sometimes a pillar like structure at anthelion point escpecially
in low sun displays, when you talk about the anthelion pillar? If so, that
has to be a good one.
Nothing special here in Finland either. Some nice lunar 22d halos in
couple
of nights.
Seeson greetings to everybody from Finland!
