These clowns need to stop scaring people. Everybody was freaking out at work and nothing happened.

It is very overcast here in NH.
SO frustrating.

I lived in North Dakota for a few years. We could see Northern lights. Mostly green flashes in the sky.

Most of the illustrations in the article are absolutely useless. And the NOAA twitter feed is worse.

8:36 Looks like the cell is going to just miss and slip over the bay.
It looks like things may break up a bit shortly thereafter.

Loved the comment …
The jets are still flying. How bad can it be?

Clear night coming but there’s no chance to see anything here in SoCal.

Hoo, golly, if we in NA could see the “southern lights”, I’d be getting a bit worried!

A direct CME hit will happen eventually. That will be more than just nice lights in the night sky.

Clear skies in Ihado. I hope we get to see them tonight /early AM. Never seen them before. It’ll save me a trip to Iceland...

Seems like a good place to drop a question for anyone that might know...
From time to time a strong solar event occurs and in the articles letting everyone know they will say something like “even people viewing from as far south as Britain will be able to see the Aurora.”
I live just under 45th parallel and see them on a rather frequent basis, why would it be unusual for the population of an island that lies between 49 and 59 to see them?
Im starting to think that I missed a detail related to those types of things back in school.
Then again, I was once told by someone at a planetarium in Chicago that certain constellations that I can see quite well from my place are too dim to be seen by the human eye. So is that statement in the articles just a statement by some English reporter that doesnt know better because he never leaves London?
