The Sun is directly overhead the Western Indian Ocean, marking the center of Earth's daylight side. This positions Central America and the Caribbean in deep nighttime darkness.

Large-scale cloud patterns show low cumulus formations across the eastern Pacific and subtropical high-pressure zones dominating the Atlantic. The jet stream remains relatively stable with a slight dip over the eastern Pacific.

Aurora activity is moderate, visible primarily over northern Canada and Alaska's night skies. A satellite belt is visible in geostationary orbit above the Americas, with the Moon in its waxing crescent phase.
