Ooopss! No Pole nor Plate Shift Yet!

[Hervé]

Manhattanhenge occurred right on schedule... right on the dot, as shown in the article below.

Since reports of the Sun or Moon rising or setting in weird spots have a tendency to resurface like seasonal flu, hay fever or Nibiru fever... with the implication that there is a macro or micro plate/pole shift afoot...

The following article demonstrates that none of these reports of the Sun or Moon rising or setting in weird spots are grounded in our Earth reality and can be flushed down the septic tank along with the substances which, presumably, originated these "visions"...


New Yorkers Crack a Smile at 'Manhattanhenge'

Thousands of New Yorkers hit the streets Wednesday and Thursday at dusk to see the setting sun turn the Manhattan skyline into a Stonehenge-like sundial.

The event, dubbed "Manhattanhenge," happens on two sets of two consecutive days each summer when the sun hits the horizon exactly in line with New York City's rectangular grid, lighting up both the north and south sides of the city's cross streets. On Wednesday (July 11), the full orb could be seen perched at the horizon, whereas on Thursday (July 12), the true "Manhattanhenge," the sun tucked itself into bed perfectly in line with the streets.

Spectators snapped spectacular photos of Wednesday's show, and Twitter was atwitter with mentions of the celestial alignment. The sky didn't cooperate quite as well on Thursday, however; the sun was "trying very hard to peak through the clouds," said Twitter user Andrew Dallos. [Gallery of the Craziest Clouds]

What makes this sunset so special? Any city crossed by a street grid that heeds the cardinal directions will experience days when the setting sun aligns with its east-to-west streets, but New York has the added requirements of impressive skyscrapers and, beyond them, a clear westward view to the horizon, across the Hudson River to New Jersey.

As the astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson put it on the Hayden Planetarium website, "Manhattanhenge may just be a unique urban phenomenon in the world, if not the universe."

I remember this from last year, I posted a similar link then, which was largely ignored.

yes, but of course the grid does not "heed the cardinal directions", it is lined up with the north-west where the sun sets at this time of year
