Needed a tripod and better equipment. But very cool. Not a frame able photo by any means but you get the idea lol
-
Raining pretty good - but camping on a hill outside Afton. Want to see one more good pulse.
-
Think it’s clouded over down here. Might need to try again later.
-
So how does this work? Gonna ebb and flow all night? Was visibly red earlier, now calmed down a bit.
-
Got it down in Staunton. Gonna head to the Blue Ridge in a bit.
-
Made it to Gainesville. Very cloudy. Further west and south I go…
-
I convinced my girlfriend to go with me so we’re gonna head to her parents outside the Blue Ridge… think I can risk going a bit south. Can always run north up the parkway if I have to. Do hope it pans out here.
-
Satellite looks a bit better than I thought it would at this point. Think I still drive but maybe I don’t need to go as far.
-
Would you be okay with Staunton area if it was you? Looks like that’s where clouds might clear to my eyes.
-
I’m fuming that it’s cloudy here. If they can see it in Paris, we’d be fine. Gonna make a last second scramble somewhere around 8pm, if I don’t fall asleep first. Best of luck to everyone!
-
I’m seeing images in what I feel like are light-pollution heavy parts of Europe (e.g, Prague) that still look pretty good. Any chance the show is good enough that clouds are the only enemy?

Getting close to locking in a trip to the Cville/Statunton area tonight. Aurora is finicky but thinking it could be worth the whirl. Vibes seem to be good.
-
Yeah, Cville is my target if I go for it. Gonna keep an eye on it and make a late call. Would be trying to be back in the morning for a Mother’s Day brunch so don’t want to go if it’s gonna be a wash. I was thinking Afton Mountain, maybe.
-
West and a little south seems to look best. Maybe a nowcasting call as the evening progresses.
-
Thanks for making the thread! Very interested in seeing the aurora somewhat locally. Became a bucket list item after a few great local chasers caught them in the Blue Ridge last year. Really bummed by clouds tonight. Hoping for a miracle - don’t want to drive super far north and even then odds don’t look fantastic.

Hmmm… https://x.com/forecaster25/status/1788910484231438842?s=46&t=YRAxGyE8QLsoshMtJniktg

Anyone debating an aurora chase tomorrow night? Tempted to go NW to the mountains if the forecast holds. edit: just saw the cloud cover forecast. Hopefully it last through Saturday night lol

Think the main line will digest it soon enough, but seems unlikely we now leave the event without at least a single sigtor. -

TOR near Nashville, TN. Makes you think [emoji6] -
Man, the weather has been boring. How are we doing in here? Feel like I haven’t posted in forever… probably less than a month lol. We need to start thinking summer happy hour/BBQ. If nobody starts planning it soon I might have to try and step up.
-
Thanks @WxWatcher007 ! Just assessing options… had my tropical vacation snatched away last minute by a series of unfortunate events. Might make sense to solo explore a city near here… or run up to NYC and find friends. Or a tornado!
-
Anyone done proper Midwest storm chasing? My family vacation plans for May got disrupted but I’m still debating taking the time I had scheduled off for myself… I’m gonna be over my PTO allotment if I don’t use it soon. Trying to get a sense of the cost of existing as a storm chaser for a week - hotels, gas, rental car (with insurance, lmao). No idea if it’s worth the struggle but it strikes me as the kind of vacation that could work solo if I had to take a solo trip.
