[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 770910, member: 48483"] Nothing is a guarantee when it comes to aurora in the lower latitudes, but the conditions are considered to be likely on Saturday night. A solar coronal mass ejection happened on the sun a few days ago, and it was aimed directly at Earth. They measure the conditions that create aurora in an index scale called "KP" and it is forecast to be a 7. The scale goes up to 9. This is higher than I have seen it for a very long time.

I just wish it was at water to allow reflection. Hope for clear skies for everybody. [/QUOTE]
