Tucson Local Pulse: Missing Person Alert and Lunar Eclipse Wonder
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Tuesday, March third.
We're continuing coverage of the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, the eighty-four-year-old mother of NBC Today show host Savannah Guthrie. We're now on day thirty-one since Nancy went missing from her Catalina Foothills home on February first. Law enforcement believes she was taken against her will. Her family, including Savannah and her siblings, visited a memorial at Nancy's home yesterday, asking the community to continue praying and hoping for her safe return. The family is offering a one million dollar reward for information leading to Nancy's recovery, and investigators say that reward can be paid in cash. The Pima County Sheriff's Office is refocusing resources on the case, with the FBI now taking a larger role and moving some operations to Phoenix. Authorities have released surveillance footage showing a suspect at Nancy's doorstep, and they're asking anyone within a two-mile radius of her home to submit any video footage from January first through February second that might seem unusual or important. If you have information, you can call the FBI tip line at one-eight-hundred-call-FBI.
On the brighter side, stargazers here in Tucson got to witness something truly magical early this morning. A total lunar eclipse moved across our skies, and observers from around the city watched as the moon took on that distinctive coppery red appearance during totality. The eclipse began with the penumbral phase around one forty-three in the morning, with the partial phase starting at two forty-nine. Totality arrived at four oh three in the morning and reached its peak at four thirty-three. Astronomers noted that the moon appeared medium-dark during the eclipse, and despite the brightness of the full moon, observers could actually see stars and even the Milky Way rising in the east. It was a slow and beautiful display of celestial geometry, and many Tucsonans took advantage of the clear skies and perfect viewing conditions we had overnight. The next total lunar eclipse visible from the United States won't happen until the start of summer in twenty twenty-nine, so this was definitely a rare treat for our community.
As we head into the rest of this Tuesday, we're looking at generally pleasant conditions, though you'll want to check the latest forecast for any changes to today's weather plans.
