I have never captured the northern lights like this before. There wasn't much color, but it was bright enough that I could see it. #northernlights

BOOOOOM THAR SHE BLOWS... 💃💃💃

Not so faint anymore. Aalestrup, Denmark on 30/9 at 22:30 CET.

I'm truly blessed. The auroral arc spans from the NW to the NE at 57°N MLAT in Denmark. This was a lopsided substorm, most active in the NW, with very tall pillars, and a bit of naked eye reds. Aalestrup, 1/10 at 21:46 CET

Whoa, it got even better half an hour later! A very strong display with pink and red clearly visible to the naked eye.

I’ll sleep when it’s cloudy

Do people event like meteors and Aurora anymore? 1257pm EST 10-2-25

Calling it a night. A few hints of color, diffuse and faint. That's it. The magnetosphere recovered during the day because of a weaker IMF and often northward Bz. The few substorms that developped weren't strong enough to beat the Moon here. But it's been a great run!

There was a very energetic and eruptive flare from behind the east limb just now. Anyone interested in this might want to check out GOES imagery, the opening of field lines is impressive. Curious what the CME will look like and how fast it is.

Interesting M1.5 flare from AR4236 near center disk. There could be an associated CME as far as I can tell from early GOES SUVI imagery.

The M1.5 CME is seen leaving the Sun in STEREO-A's coronagraph (COR2). It is only visible for a few frames so far. Earth is to the left. The CME is a bit biased northward, but I think there is an Earth-directed component. Let's see what models have to say about this one.

Not the most impressive CME forecast, but it's something. ETA around noon (UTC) on 6/10, +/-7h. For today there was a possible glancing blow. Solar Orbiter, currently aligned with the Sun-Earth line, detected a bit of a disturbance earlier today, this may clip Earth as well.

A clear interplanetary shock has been detected by the Solar Orbiter satellite. This is likely the CME from yesterday's center disk M1.5 flare and filament eruption. It matches the NASA M2M forecasted ETA, so it should be on track for an arrival around 11:00 UTC on 6/10.
