Northern lights tonight

Solar storm is supposed to give us fantastic northern lights show tonight (even down to northern US) but we had a damn blizzard blow in so I don't think we'll be seeing anything arghh! When they said the same thing in the summer I sat for a couple hours watching the whole sky light up and dance so I was looking forward to watching again. Oh well for those of you who don't have snow storms have a look out tonight and see if you can see the lights

Thanks!
I hope we can see it here in South Alberta.

Thanks for the heads up! It's snowing here right now but you never know - could clear up. I saw the
most amazing northern lights when I moved to Kelowna. Just amazing!

Oh I love northern lights, that is the one thing I really miss. Don't see them enough around here.
Very cloudy and expecting rain, snow sleet, blah blah blah...

At the moment I can barely see my barn yard light through the snow but I'll check later, and then when I get up again. I haven't seen the northern lights since I was a little kid.

Checked last night but it was cloudy.

We had a nice, clear sky here last night but still couldn't see any lights.

It was just too cloudy last night so couldn't see a thing A friend who lives in the town west of us got to see them this morning though on her early morning barn checks and said it was lovely

I'll have to remember to check again. We had some a few years ago during some big solar flares. They were red. It was really neat.

I did see it at 3am.
Normally I sleep at that time, but the wind was blowing crazy, again.
So, when I was awake anyway, I thought, let's check out the sky
It was a very clear sky, I could see the northern light very good and even a falling star.

It was a lovely clae night, but alas, no lights.
