LOL well of course we hit a Kp of 6 this morning briefly and it is now a 5. Oh well. With that said there is some hope as an M7.9 flare erupted and likely produced a CME. We will have to wait and see if it is full halo and Earth bound.
-
Yeah the Kp barely reached 4 which isn't going to do it. The CME hit way too early and was weak.
-
Thank you! I was hoping for another chance tonight but that now appears much less likely.
-
Damn it! That is way too early.
-
I was blown away that they were directly overhead if not a little behind in some cases. They were not far off from reaching Alaska caliber at the peak. The only issue was the clouds.
-
Here is one more:
-
Here is the best of what I got while fighting the clouds:
-
The pulses were incredible and had some lights directly overhead. This is a quick pic from the night but much more to come tomorrow (note: the cloud is in motion so that of course is blurred):
-
Wow just exploded here with rods and pulsing lights!
-
Faint naked eye greens here through holes in clouds but not great. Some purples show up on camera. Clouds enacting a screw job lol.
-
I am sticking it out.
-
I am calling bust. K Index down to 4. By now I should be seeing the first hints of it on camera and nothing is showing up. Also there are quite a few debris clouds streaming in from the great Lakes convection.
-
Spaceweatherlive is saying we are at G5 now.
-
Yeah it is hard to say. Storms pulse up and down so I wouldn't give up yet. The weather looks favorable here so I am going to try anyway. The question is will the IMF tip south again?
-
Well it isn't looking good if SWPC is accurate. Storming seems to have stopped for now.
-
Yeah that is definitely no good. I will still hold out hope.
-
Yeah we may be scrambling for leftovers at dusk. I only hope it can hold on. It really doesn't get much better than that. G4 right now.
-
Looks like we have chance tonight with some breaks and a G3 possible.
-
As always this one will be a fight against the clouds here in VT
-
Those are noctilucent clouds for sure.
-
Yeah Kp is 6 and unfortunately clouds. I went out to try and instead ended up with this:
-
A full halo CME is on its way to Earth from a C9 flare last night but it will get here just in time for the clouds to be back.
-
Yeah unfortunately the KP is down to 3 so I think any chance is done at this point.
-
Yeah it won't happen because skies are clear here tonight.
-
We have better sky conditions so I hope so but I would say unlikely. However with that said last night's event was not really forecast either.
