Weather Wednesday: What is in the sky this month?
Whether you are an avid stargazer or just enjoy laying in the grass on a summer night to look at what the night sky, the month of June has a lot to offer you. Everything from the moon, to planets and even a chance to see some shooting stars, lets take a closer look at what the night sky has to offer this month. The Moon New moon: June 25 First quarter: June 3 Full Moon: June 11 Full moon name: Strawberry Moon Last quarter: June 18 Some of the best stargazing opportunities will be when the moon at the new moon phase because the moon is aligned with the sun and isn't visible to us in the Norhtern Hemisphere. This time is considered the best because it offers the darkest sky, free from the bright moonlight. The full moon this month will take place on June 11, however the best time to see it will be on June 10 as the sun goes down. Now the name, Strawberry Moon comes from fruit rather than color. According to the Farmer's Almanac, early farmers and Indigenous people started to notice that the full moon in June often coincided with the start of wild strawberry harvesting season. In Europe, June's full moon has been called the Rose Moon and the Honey Moon linking it with the colors of summer evenings. The neat thing about this month's moon is that it will be one of the lowest hanging moon of the year. Meaning that it will never get too far above the southern horizon. A full moon is opposite the sun, so it mirrors it meaning that as the sun sets the moon often rises! Because the moon is so close to the horizon our brain will play a trick on us making us think it is larger because of the horizon. Meteor Showers: The only good meteor shower in June is the Daytime Arietids, peaking on June 7. If you are up bright and early you could see about 30 or so shooting stars per hour. Yes, there is another meteor shower called the June Bootid meteor shower however this one is unpredictable and doesn't offer as many shooting stars. Planets: Planets that will be visible in the morning hours include Venus, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, all mainly in the eastern sky. You may need binoculars or even a telescope to view Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Planets that will be visible in the evening and mainly in the western part of the sky include Mercury, Mars and Jupiter. Unfortunately, the gas giant with the big red spot will be a little harder to see but still visible in the western sky Constellations: Other Events: On June 21st we enter the Summer Solstice or the longest day of the year for the northern hemisphere. On this day, the Earth's Northern Hemisphere will be tilted closest to the sun and will experience the longest day and shortest night. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

My Favorite Ways to Cool Your Home Down In a Heat Wave
Did you know that heat waves kill more Americans than any other major weather event, including floods and fires? The human body can really struggle to stay hydrated and deal with suddenly high temperatures -- and the same is true of our pets as well. Fortunately, working with smart thermostats, air purifiers, air quality sensors, smart shades and a variety of other home products has taught me a lot about quickly cooling a place down without skyrocketing your energy bills. When the worst heat strikes, here's what I recommend doing to stay healthy and cool. And if you have any elderly family nearby, make sure they're following tips like these too. 1. Use a portable air conditioner and monitor room temperature carefully Arlo sensors can do nearly anything and are easy to move whenever you want. Arlo Whole-house air conditioners remain very important in heat waves, especially when combined with other cooling methods. But not all homes have whole-house AC, and in severe heat waves, they may not be enough. Another option is a smart portable air conditioner that you can plug in and move from room to room, depending on where you're spending time. Take a look at our list of the top portable air conditioners, and you'll find models with remotes, voice assistant support, timers, dehumidifier functions and much more. Expect to spend around $400 for a good model that you can use for summers to come. Important note: Once temperatures start rising well above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, basic ceiling fans don't really make a difference, especially when addressing health issues. It's important to focus more on home insulation and air conditioning. In many homes, some rooms can get much hotter than others, which doesn't really help central thermostats do their job. Consider home monitoring devices that can sense temperature, like these all-in-one Arlo security sensors we tested. That way you can constantly monitoring the temperature in a particular spot (sitting room, bedroom, baby's room, etc.) and take action if it gets too high. 2. Set a strict curtain schedule for your windows Sunlight streaming through your windows can heat up objects and air inside your home, making a heat wave worse. Close your blinds completely during the hottest temperatures for better protection. You can also search for smart blinds and curtain retrofits to let you set automatic schedules to make this process easier. Once the outside temperature drops significantly below indoor temps, your insulation starts working against you. So, if your region experiences cooler nights, wait for the temperature difference and open windows around your home to create cool air flow. 3. Replace your HVAC filter and order an inspection Kangaroo includes a climate sensor, aka leak detector, in its expanded eight-piece home monitoring kit. Kangaroo To prepare for a heat wave, you'll want to replace your home HVAC filter, which is typically located right at the fan system that pushes air around your house. It's a good idea to keep several properly sized filters nearby so you can switch them out a couple of times a year, or when you really need efficient airflow. If you have time, you should also schedule a maintenance visit from a professional HVAC contractor. Among other things, they can test the refrigerant levels in your AC system. Refrigerant can leak out over time and make your air conditioning less efficient. Making sure you have the proper levels is important ahead of a hot period. Read more: HVAC Maintenance Guide: What to DIY and When to Call a Pro 4. Install leak detectors and monitor for leaks Home leaks are often associated with freezing temperatures when pipes crack in the dead of winter. But heat waves can cause an opposite, yet similar, problem: Pipes can expand and damage their valves and other components, which also leads to leaks. Also, AC units can go into overdrive and may leak more than usual in your basement or garage. Most home security systems, like Abode, offer leak detector add-ons that you can place in susceptible areas to get alerts or alarms when water on the floor is detected. You can also find standalone units from Eufy and other brands. 5. Keep your outdoor home devices out of direct sunlight Cutting down on drafts helps keep the cool air inside. BanksPhotos via Getty Shade is your friend when placing outdoor electrics like home security cameras or outside sensors -- even robot lawnmowers. High temps can wreak havoc on batteries, make sensitive electronics overheat and may even cause plastics to melt. So when the temperature start shooting up, bring your electronics inside or into the shade until the hot spell is over. And please watch where you install your home cameras. 6. Check and replace your weather stripping Weather stripping refers to those small strips of felt and rubber at the edges of windows and doors. They play a vital role in home insulation: When they wear down or get ripped off, the gaps notoriously cause drafts. That's unpleasant in wintertime, but during a heat wave it can sap all the cool air that your AC has created, keeping your home from cooling down fully and increasing the risk of heat-related health problems. Prep for heat waves by checking weatherstripping and blocking any drafts from worn materials. You can find weather stripping yourself for a DIY project, but it's important to get the right kind to match your doors and windows. 7. Find cooler alternatives for cooking Keep kitchens calm and cool during a heat wave. Brothers91 via Getty Cooking and baking produce a lot of heat in the kitchen, so you may want to reduce those activities during a heat wave. That's why we have an entire guide on how to keep your kitchen cool when temperatures rise, including prepping meals beforehand or cooking late in the evening. Also, this may be a great time to check out meal delivery services. Read more: Don't Turn Your Oven on During a Heat Wave. Do This Instead 8. Search for electronics to unplug and stop using Large electronics can produce a lot of background heat even when they're in standby mode. When the heat gets really bad, try unplugging larger electronics entirely. That can include A/V receivers, game consoles, desktop computers and televisions -- depending on what you plan to use that day. On that note, refrain from running heat-producing appliances like dishwashers and dryers, or at least wait until nighttime when temperature drops.

Amazon There's one other surprising part of the home that produces a lot of heat -- your incandescent lights, which are terribly inefficient at using energy (touch one to find out). Newer LEDs (light-emitting diodes) found in smart lights create almost no heat and tend to last much longer. The key is finding high-quality, affordable smart lights, which is why you should head over to our list of the best smart lights available. Switch out those sweaty lights with LEDs and your house will start feeling cooler. 10. Create easy access to emergency medical services An Echo can help during a heat wave emergency. Amazon If it looks like someone is suffering from heatstroke or a similar condition, it's important to get medical attention immediately to help them out. Signs include lots of sweating accompanied by headache, nausea and disorientation. If someone shows problems like these, get them in a cool spot and contact emergency services. You can also bathe their feet in cool water to help them get relief. Some home security plans can make this easier. The Alexa Emergency Assist plan ($6 per month) is a good option, since it works with existing Alexa speakers and lets you immediately call for help and notify family emergency contacts with a command. That can be especially important for elderly relatives who may live alone and are more susceptible to heat-related conditions. For more temperature management choices, visit our guide to the best smart thermostats and look at the top DIY security monitoring systems. It's also a good idea to brush up on heatstroke safety and how to stay safe when air quality is really bad.
