Is There A Good Chance Of Seeing The Aurora Tonight?

[ThomWV]

I understand there has been a major disturbance on the face of the sun for the last couple of days. We finally got a clear evening coming up (at just below 40 degrees North Latitude) and I was hoping to be able to see it tonight. I saw it last in 1956, in Washington DC.

Hope to see some celestial activity here in Indy tonight ...

Hope it's clear viewing where you are, too !

4. I did not know, but now I'm going to take a hike out past the Uni llights

and see if it gets this far south (Central Illinois). I saw it last year, and it was probably the single most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
