Flagstaff Local Frequency: Blood Moon Eclipse, Snow Jamz Festival, and Community Health Updates

Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Tuesday, March 3rd.

We start with quite the celestial spectacle happening right now in our skies. A total lunar eclipse is underway this early morning, transforming our moon into a blood-red orb. The partial phase began at one forty-four this morning, and the real show is happening right now with totality reaching its maximum at around four thirty-three a.m. before ending at five oh-two. If you haven't already set your alarm, it's not too late to bundle up and head outside for this rare event. Researchers at the local observatory here in Flagstaff are particularly excited because this spectacular display won't happen again until late twenty twenty-eight. The dark skies our community has protected for decades make Flagstaff an ideal viewing location, though astronomers note that getting away from any light pollution will give you an even better view of this remarkable phenomenon.

Looking ahead to this coming weekend, we've got some exciting events on the calendar. The second annual Snow Jamz Music Festival takes over Arizona Snowbowl on Saturday and Sunday, March 7th and 8th. Expect live music, high-energy DJs, and plenty of fun spread across multiple lodges, each offering its own unique sound and experience. Saturday also marks National Telemark Ski Day, so if you're one of those devoted free-heel skiers keeping the tradition alive, Snowbowl is celebrating you. And if you're into terrain park action, mark your calendars for the Flagstaff Ski and Snowboard Rail Jam happening Sunday, March 8th, with registration available through the Flagstaff Ski Club website.

On the cultural front, music lovers should know that the Slackers are coming to the Hive on March 21st at six p.m., with tickets starting at sixty-eight dollars.

In community health news, we're highlighting Dr. Hayden Poulson, a foot and ankle specialist who recently joined Northern Arizona Orthopaedics at their Flagstaff and Prescott Valley locations. Dr. Poulson brings impressive credentials and deep community roots, having trained at Tuba City Regional Medical Center and worked extensively on the Navajo and Hopi Reservations. His commitment to bringing specialized orthopedic care to underserved populations reflects exactly the kind of compassionate medicine our region deserves.

This has been Flagstaff Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
