Back in my early teens (1970’s) I did see the Aurora Borealis in North West Ohio.

It wasn’t terribly impressive. Just some shimmering white in the sky. Not any of the color you see in pictures from Alaska.

I was summer or early fall as I recall and my father put us in the car and took us out in the country away from the city lights to see it more clearly.

I would love to see it again here in Ohio but I have to sleep tonight and work tomorrow. I would probably have to drive out to boonies as well. Too much light pollution here.

A lesser geomagnetic storm (a very minor one) hit yesterday, and the aurora was visible in Arizona. The storm today is slightly stronger than that.

Another mention. The magnetic field is weak over our western part of the earth than in the past. Be careful about sun exposure.
