☄️🔥 Look up, Wabasha-Kellogg, this coming week we are watching for FIREBALLS! 🌠
And no, we're not talking about the kind that comes in a shot glass! 😂🥃
The Southern Taurid Meteor Shower peaks overnight Wednesday, November 4, into Thursday, November 5, and our beautiful Mississippi River Valley could be a fantastic place to catch a little action in the night sky!
Here's what makes this one interesting... 👀
The Southern Taurids aren't known for producing hundreds of shooting stars. In fact, you might only see about FIVE meteors per hour.
BUT... WHAT THEY LACK IN QUANTITY, THEY CAN MAKE UP FOR IN DRAMA! 🔥
The Taurids have a reputation for producing FIREBALLS — incredibly bright, sometimes slow-moving meteors that can light up the night sky!
And with the Moon only about 18% illuminated, we'll have relatively dark skies to help our chances!
🌠 HERE'S YOUR STARGAZING GAME PLAN!
📅 WHEN: Wednesday, November 4, into Thursday, November 5
⏰ BEST TIME: Around midnight! Plan to watch between 11 PM and 1 AM.
👀 WHERE TO LOOK: Face the southern sky, but keep your eyes moving! Meteors can appear anywhere overhead.
🌌 WHERE TO GO: Find yourself a nice, dark spot away from streetlights. Our beautiful Wabasha-Kellogg countryside offers plenty of opportunities to escape the glow of town!
🔭 WHAT TO BRING: A lawn chair, a warm blanket, maybe a thermos of hot chocolate, and a little patience! No telescope necessary!
Now, we're not promising a sky full of shooting stars. This isn't expected to be a particularly active Taurid year. But the possibility of catching one spectacular FIREBALL? We think that's worth looking up for! 😉
❤️ There's something pretty special about living in a place where the night sky can be part of the entertainment.
So bundle up, step outside, and take a few minutes to appreciate the incredible world above our little corner of the Mississippi River Valley!
And if you catch a fireball, WE WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT! ☄️🔥

🎃🥫 Trick-or-treating for a GOOD CAUSE! ❤️
This Halloween, the ghosts and goblins won't be the only ones knocking on doors in the Wabasha-Kellogg area!
Our wonderful Wabasha-Kellogg School District #811 National Honor Society students will be out and about for their Annual Halloween Food Drive, collecting non-perishable food donations for the Wabasha Area Food Share! 🧡
📅 Saturday, October 31
📍 Throughout the Wabasha-Kellogg Area
Instead of asking for candy, these students will be trick-or-treating for something even sweeter — donations to help feed our neighbors in need! 🥫🍬
So while you're stocking up on Halloween candy for the little ghosts and goblins, consider grabbing a few extra canned goods or other non-perishable food items to have ready for our NHS students!
👏 We LOVE seeing our young people giving back to the community, and what a wonderful reminder that even the smallest acts of kindness can make a BIG difference!
❤️ Let's help these students fill the shelves at the Wabasha Area Food Share!
Thank you to the Wabasha-Kellogg National Honor Society for keeping this wonderful Halloween tradition going! 🎃
