EXTREME GEOMAGNETIC STORM--NOW! The biggest geomagnetic storm in almost 20 years is underway now. It has reached category G5--an extreme event. Sky watchers with dark skies may be able to see and photograph auroras even at low latitudes. Get away from city lights and look at the sky! from: https://www.spaceweather.com/ |

I was just outside in Tehachapi, california...the sky above the north mountain is pink. I believe..that is an aurora. I don't remember one making it this far south. |

On a rare occasion like now they get as far south as Florida...it was cloudy where I am but it was not in all of Florida.... AURORAS IN FLORIDA! Many people around the world have just seen auroras for the first time in their lives. This includes residents of the Florida Keys. Ron Jarrell sends this photo from Big Pine Key at latitude 24.7° N:  "The auroras were so beautiful!" says Jarrell, who may have made the lowest latitude sighting during this storm. (Update: We now have a credible report of auroras in Puerto Rico!) |
