Now - we're getting mostly red, but it's beautiful

Visible in Dallas!! Whoo hoo! gorgeous RED sky

[Qwinn]

I'm in NJ, and it's very overcast here. This -may- be wishful thinking, but it really seems to me that there's is a definite reddish tinge to the clouds that is not normally there.

We have Aurora in North Central Iowa...directly abouve my house is the neatest red streak, with some blue & blue grean streaking about. I wish I had a decent enough camera to capture it...

[bonfire]

Hey Qwinn! Keep looking..my sky is very red.

Aurora visible in OKLAHOMA

That sucks ... nothing in North Texas.

[Hunble]

Aurora visible directly above in Minnesota (45 deg N Latitude) and showing greens and reds.

It was so bright that I thought it was a cirrus cloud, until it started to rapidly change shape.

WOW

[berkeleybeej]

There's hope yet .. keep watching.

[JoJo Gunn]

Tennessee-Alabama state line. It's streetlight hell in this little burg, but the Northern sky is reddish. Nothing spectacular, (not yet but hopeful), but it's noticeable.

[Species8472]

Unusual display here in Alaska. The entire sky is glowing green from horizon to horizon, with occasional bright rays to the zenith.

[Species8472]

It is rare to see it this strong and directly overhead. Most of the time we see it in the northern sky. I don't think I have ever seen it this bright.

[RandallFlagg]

I still can't see squa-- anything.. Too close to the city.

[MarMema]

It's very light outside here and quite pinkish orange.

[WSGilcrest]

BUMP! Maybe a slight reddish color to the night sky. Maybe I'm seeing things.

*RED ALERT* Solar winds off the chart.
