More Aurora!

Last night it was pretty clear so I kept checking to see if there were any lights outside. I have a couple apps to check too, most of them are just eh (one keeps sending me notifications before sunset that if it is clear outside we might be able to see them! And it is always like it is not even dark so there is no chance!), but I do have one that is crowd sourced and has all the technical data that they get from all the sources, and people also post pics and info when they see the lights. Plus you can set it to get notifications when someone posts within x kms of you which I did and someone posted one near-ish around 9:30 so I popped my head out to see and there they were!! I had just been wondering yesterday during the day if we were going to get any more good viewings like on the boat and then we did!!

At first it was just this wide stripe from the horizon up over our head and back behind the mountains behind us which was cool then some started to come by the edge of the mountains and they were dancing all over the place and even had some pink! Which is apparently pretty rare as they are usually green so that was fun. And then more came between them and at one point it was most of the sky was lights! The clouds started to come in and you could still see them in between which was cool and then eventually the clouds were too much so we went inside and got ready for bed, though I did pop my head out a few min later and the clouds had disappeared, but the lights were very faint and then gone so off to sleep! It was a good 30-45 min show! So much fun!!Read more
