That is weird. I was driving home from work and was thinking the same thing, up here in northern California.

For some reason, the night sky looks "off" tonight, a bit unnatural. I could not put my finger on what it was, but you nailed it. The stars look like they are at airplane height. In fact, I thought they were airplanes in some sort of flight pattern until I recognized the constellations. Really strange looking.

I thought it was just me, but since you've mentioned it, maybe there is some kind of atmospheric phenomenon going on.

Weird! Wish I had seen it. I've read the explanation and I still don't understand it! I mean, I've seen the moon low on the horizon before and it didn't make the stars to be low in the sky.

When is this supposed to happen again, anyhoo?
