KeenerWx Posted yesterday at 01:14 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:14 AM Aurora now naked eye visible on the horizon. Washed out haze of green and red at the moment, but we’ll see if we get any substorms that help put on a more vivid display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeenerWx Posted yesterday at 06:48 AM Share Posted yesterday at 06:48 AM Another impact will happen from the X5 flare earlier. The impact from the X5 flare was actually forecasted to be the strongest. From the two CME’s that led to tonight’s show, forecast was for G3 @ 7+ KPI. We got to G4 @ what looks like at this point 8+/9-. Tomorrow had been forecast G4 at 8/8+. All to say, some thought is that tomorrow will end up being even more extraordinary. The downside is that (1) peak is projected during daylight hours, (2) clouds will be a problem for many in the sub during the nighttime hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeenerWx Posted yesterday at 07:54 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:54 AM Just some more compressed iPhone pics. Possibly at risk of spamming, but this event was incredible. First was ~10:37P when things were really starting to dance. Quick movements of pillars and bleeding of vibrant reds/greens. View is to the north. Second picture is at ~10:43P and looking to the SE. The contrast of the vibrant green “snake” leader was…something. Spook-and-awe. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeenerWx Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago While the possibility existed, no grand finale of aurora tonight. Ingredients just did not coexist simultaneously to produce a notable show. There were some eye visible periods of reds. But compared to last night, well, it didn’t compare. Still riding the high of the past week. Quite a treat to get slammed by terrestrial and space weather in short succession. Now to settle back into a slumber and wait. Can’t get too greedy.
