Ikeya-Zhang is also in that region of the sky. Astronomy is about done for the season here, but there was a pretty display of the aurora in twilight a couple days ago. A single shimmering curtain of yellow at the bottom, red at the top, somewhat to the north and headed east, probably not visible much south of us. A few hours later it was strong, but diffuse and unspectacular, across most of the sky, three or four wide east-northwest bands, quiet and pale green.
