Did you notice the date? April 26th. Not particularly current. If the sunspots continue at zero and the magnetsphere of the sun and earth continue the current decline, an earth directed CME could make it all the way to the surface. That would not be good.

It's been 2 years since the last good aurora was visible in the Pocatello area. It was a clear night in late December 2006. The sky was full of green shimmering "curtains" and "rays" of green light like rays of sunshine through a break in the clouds. Very pretty.

I’m over near Pullman/Moscow, and I remember that stuff a couple of years back...
