Looks like another wave of sun incoming tonight, optimal for our timezone
I'm considering going to the beach to get a better view but as I understand it the good views are really just photos, the aurora just looks like a pinkish night sky. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It is but the pink is very pretty
The pink reminds me of the volcano sunrises and sunsets we had in 2022, the actual sky was pink and purple, it wasn't just the clouds. It's just so wondrous and beautiful.
There's hope for me yet!
Maybe I can catch it this time! Is there a good website/app to check predictions, what time will It likely be?

See the left sidebar. If you see red on the aurora oval and if Kp is near 9, we have a good chance. Maybe from early evening but could be later, or not at all.
