With the arrival of spring and the equinox, a popular Chicago phenomenon known as “Chicagohenge” returns.
The alignment has the potential to be visible each day through Monday. While clouds could put a damper on plans, not all viewing chances are off the table.
“Chicagohenge” occurs twice a year — during the autumnal and vernal equinoxes — when the rising and setting of the sun align perfectly with the city’s east-west grid. The Adler Planetarium described the moment as “the time of year when nature and architecture harmoniously come together.”
When it comes to catching “Chicagohenge,” both timing and weather conditions matter a lot.
Crowds turned out, hoping for the perfect viewing on Friday evening, but were left disappointed. By 7:02 p.m., cameras and cell phones were pointed down the canyon of buildings.
The only problem was – the sun’s orange hue was nowhere to be found. Because of the clouds, “Chicagohenge” wasn’t visible.
For those holding out hope to see the formation, you might be in luck this weekend.
Here are the possible viewing opportunities:
Sunset on Saturday should be a good opportunity, even with a few clouds arriving off the lake from the east. Conditions aren’t favorable on Sunday, which looks cloudy overall. On Monday, both sunrise and sunset could provide additional chances to see “Chicagohenge.”For those hoping to see it in the morning, sunrise is a few mins after 6:45 a.m. sunset. For evening viewers, sunset occurs a few mins after 7 p.m.
