There was a surprise G3 last night. There is some possibility for action tonight in its wake. It was cloudy and rainy last night anyway. Tonight should be clear here.
The 2003 aurora display over Long Island is one I will never forget (unfortunately I didn't have a camera capable of taking good photos of it at the time). It was incredible. Half the sky was visibily green and the other half visibly red and it was directly overhead. i was looking right at the Fire Island light which divided the two colors from where I was standing.
Well I wouldn't say that entirely but most likely yes. The G2 last fall gave a show here with visible rods etc. but it certainly didn't match up to earlier this week. A lot will ride on that IMF and if we get a lucky substorm as well.
