Green sky in Svalbard again :)
Green sky in Svalbard again :)
Aurora, at Snoqualmie Point Washington, November 11 - 5:20 pm It still wasn't fully dark! And a good thing too because the clouds were coming in! (1/N)
🚨 ANOTHER POWERFUL X-FLARE!
Sunspot 4274 just fired off yet another monster—an X4-class solar flare early this morning. This blast wasn’t aimed squarely at Earth, but it did launch a fast CME that’s expected to give our magnetic field a glancing smack on Nov. 16–17.
A shortwave radio blackout hit the Indian Ocean during the eruption, and NASA models suggest we could see G1–G2 geomagnetic storms from the edge of this CME. Nothing like the wild Nov. 11–12 event, but high-latitude sky watchers might still snag some auroras.

Another shot of the aurora tonight from Timnath, Colorado.

Dancing Lights 💃🏻🪩🕺🏻
I managed to snap about two hours of 10 second images from a dry lake last night, between 10pm and midnight.
This is all of them compressed into a time lapse, with the stars rotating around the south celestial pole.
Other than the horizon being weirdly bright and there being a *hint* of a vertical pillar from time to time, this was pretty much not naked eye visible.

Aurora for the 2nd night in a row!
Seen in southern New Mexico at 33N latitude at 7:30PM Mountain Standard time.
Not as bright as last night...so far. Will continue to monitor.

I'm starting to see hints of a red glow on my camera to the north. I think (hope?) that the #aurora will start any minute down here!
It did look quite impressive an #aurora tonight, however the usual Vancouver clouds had to steal the show.

Still nothing. It's like the #aurora is teasing us
