I keep hearing that the temperature changes are from global warming, and some say the cause of temperature changes is the earth's axis is tilting and there is going to be a polar shift, so let's see if this is happening.

All one needs is a simple homemade quadrant, instructions on the first half of this site.

September 21 is coming up, the best time to get an accurate reading is that day at noon.

If anyone wants to or is able to take a measurement, just post your location and the reading you get.

Will do, looks like a fun project, just for the learning aspect of it for myself and Little M!

I'm at 43.04 degrees according to Google Earth, I measured 44 degrees. I'm pretty sure I have a couple degrees I can be off since I lack proper tools for measuring

It was cloudy out at noon, but cleared up just a bit ago, late at night.

Nearly a full moon as well, that would have been cool to have the autumnal equinox and a full moon at the same time.

Waxing Gibbous, 99% of the Moon is Illuminated right now , full moon on the 23rd....
