April 27, 2025
NOTE Recommended arrival/setup is between 8:30 and 9:00 PM.
Last Look At Jupiter
Come on down to the lake for a last look at Jupiter, and the bright winter stars including Sirius. they won't be visible in our evening sky for much longer.
Do note:
-
Lake Ontario is still cold. the temperature can be 10 to 15 degrees cooler at the lakeshore, especially if there's a breeze off the water. bring warm clothes including something windproof.
-
The lakeshore mayflies are out. They do not bite, but they like to land everywhere. This is less of an issue after sunset.
Check our homepage for GO/NO-GO calls as this event is weather dependent.
Please note that we make our GO/NO-GO calls a few hours before an event but, if the weather worsens, we may have to cancel or wrap up earlier than planned. We'll try to post updates but please use your best judgment if you're planning to join us.
