Noticed I only partially had it in frame on another pic I took, so just went out to get another pic.
Ignore hand covering mailbox post light, no I don't have alien fingers it was shot at with wide angle  Big Dipper at top pouring it out.  |

It has calmed down significantly in my AO and clouds are moving in.
 I was really hoping to see those beautiful colors with my naked eyes and crossing off a bucket list item.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By GoldenMead: I would not be surprised if SpaceX doesn’t lose a few hundred satellites from this. Especially since it's happened before. Right after a launch the satellites are in a very low orbit and anything that moves the atmosphere can take them down. They've done a couple launches this week. The lost ~40 in February of 2022 to a solar event. |

Went back and read the first pages. Many people doubted that we’d see such a strong storm and that we wouldn’t see the Auroras so far south.
The earth’s magnetic field has decreased much more than what the government has been telling us. Also another X flare X1.60 has happened in the last hour on top of the X5.89 from earlier. In the morning we should be able to know if they will hit us. If they do we definitely will have a better light show than what we got tonight so far! Amazing pictures everyone. |

On a live stream some people from Mexico City were reporting they can see it real well. Dunno if they're being honest.... crazy if they're saying the truth. |

I should have mentioned when I posted the pictures above, when we first arrived at our gazing location, we saw nothing out of the ordinary. After a few minutes, my wife commented the sky was noticeably lighter, but it didn’t click what we were looking at. From my experience looking at comets, I knew my camera with the f1.8 lens could see better than I could. Although (I think) my pictures turned out great for my first aurora event, the sky looked very muted to the naked eye. Was that everyone else’s experience?

They haven’t been wrong yet. Cool and all but....the charts dont lie. Also the NOAA knew about the G5 coming but they didnt say anything until it was already here. So my level of trust on them is minimal. |
