A few nights either side of Thursday, June 6 is potentially the best time for another display of the northern lights at low latitudes—such as Europe and North America—which ties in nicely with June’s new moon.

In case anyone cares.

I missed it last time so thanks for the heads up

Although there are absolutely no guarantees, the part of the sun that caused a G5 geomagnetic storm (the strongest since 2003) last month has returned to face Earth. And the good news is that it’s still active.

Thanks Nail.

The Northern Lights a few weeks back were absolutely wild up here in the ADKs/Upstate NY region.

Where will the Northern Lights be visible this week? The Northern Lights may be seen Monday, Sept. 16 as far south as California, Missouri and Colorado after major solar activity over the weekend .

Some research activities at the HAARP site in
Alaska can cause air glow & visible light effects

And it is an aurora like phenomena

Meanwhile, HAARP's "Making the Invisible Visible" experiment will "test if hot electrons are capable of producing the continuum (white) emissions present in STEVE airglow." STEVE, short for Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement, is an aurora-like phenomenon that occurs when charged particles from the sun interact with Earth's ionosphere.

Another test seeks to project images and audible voices/sounds in the atmosphere

One of the more unique experiments, "Ghosts in the Airglow," will mix art and atmospheric research to "play with the liminal boundaries of Earth's atmosphere and outer space," according to the project's website. The experiment will use HAARP to bounce images, spoken word and sound art off the ionosphere to learn more about radio propagation

Saw the title of this thread and was wondering who is missing now? Kids are Amber Alerts. Seniors are Golden Alerts. Aurora Alerts?

Your guess is as good as mine.

OP is a moron.



It means there is potential for the Aurora Borealis further south than normal.

I clicked on it and figured that's what it was about. Just took a second to figure it out .

Maybe a little north for Kentucky. May not be.

May be able to see it tonight.

Wildfire smoke may block it...or make it even harder to see.

I just realized that.

Was a little too hazy from Manitoba fires last night otherwise would have been good here. Another decent forecast for tonight. Hopefully the haze clears later.

How often do you see them?

I assume not a lot.

I see them mostly in the fall and winter. Three or four times a month at peak if I had to guess. Intensity varies. Summer not so much, but it happens. Hopefully I'll get a glimpse tonight.

That is more than it expected. I was listening to a podcast from a guy from new england and he had only seen a few times.

We're north of almost all of Maine, right at 47N. Also we're lucky to have really dark skies and clear air.
