It's putting on a show in the UK right now...

I just looked at my Weather app, and it looks like there’s a chance it’ll clear up around midnight here. I can get up and see if I can see anything.

A geomagnetic storm. Basically, the sun emitted a solar flare that was directed at earth and now we may see aurora‘s more far south than usual.

Woah is it dangerous?

Woah is it dangerous?

Only if it has the same class as the Carrington event. That’s extremely rare, though, so this one’s not dangerous.

I'm on the border of KY and WV so I hope to see it tonight. Only have my cell phone to take pictures

Pretty good chance you will. I think putting phone in night photo mode will help if it has one.

I love taking pictures of our mountains close by. I mean, close by. From my front area. First one is from years ago.

It looks like the storm is going to get more intense.

I’m staying up tonight. Here is hoping the clouds clear!

Your second picture just gave me some inspiration for a painting.
