This picture was taken of our sleepy little mountain town! I didn't take it, and I didn't see it because it was at 11:30 at night. Just passing it along because I think its a cool pic.

I read something a couple days ago that the Aurora Borealis was going to be visible from the Northern states on Monday night. I just skimmed through it … something about a solar flare or something? Cool pic. I’ve seen the Northern lights many times in Canada while walleye fishing/bear hunting and it was a super cool sight over the lake in front of the cabin.

I've never seen them, looked a few times but no luck. Most people say you have to get out in an area with no light pollution, and we are small < 10,000 people but still haven't been able to catch a glimpse.

Northern lights are always a cool thing to watch but it has been too long since I've seen a good display.

Cool pic! Those are on my bucket
List and they said we might see them as far south as where I am. Of course, it’s been completely overcast for over a week…

Seen them a few times up here. A beautiful fall evening watching them over Lake Michigan is very peaceful.
Great pic !!

I’ve only seen them once here in Northern Indiana. Nothing like that display but a few streaks of green shooting across the sky.

Would love to go somewhere and see them at their full effect.

When you actually see a good clear display they make you suddenly realize how small and really insignificant humans are in the big scheme of things.

Y’all sound like Bill Shatner after his space shot today.

Those are on my bucket...

Likewise for my wife. I would love to see them but I'm guessing that they'll never come this far south....

I would think that the burning couches in Morgantown might light the sky up an eerie green

True... But the smoke makes it hard to see much of anything. 😊
