Instruments just beginning to show arrival of CME. Already a fine show in Seattle. Should intensify as night goes on.

It is indeed the best I've ever seen in my life. Here in north central Oregon we've got bright blue-green all around the northern horizon with pink and rose extending further, almost to the zenith.

Here at Auroral Ground Zero, we had a sky full. Dancing greens and rare reds. Incredible show for a while. I can hardly wait for tomorrow.

I live in Los Osos overlooking Morro Bay and although the view is always beautiful, the only lights I see are from the stars and the rotations of the lighthouse. Ocasionally I will see the stars bleeding together and realize it is just probably a flashback.

I'm sure we're far too south to see them (in Raleigh, NC), unfortunately..............but I'll NEVER forget flying night missions out of Fairbanks, AK back in the day and literally flying right under the aurora borealis. Happened twice to me........and it was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. This huge, grayish-green, filligreed curtain of light. Who would have thought that you could actually fly under it, past it.........like it is literally a curtain in the sky???

We may have another good night tonight as well. We have some cloud cover right now, but with this wind, maybe it will blow out of here.
