I’ve seen on TV that it was seen in New York and Pennsylvania. I saw it in SE Iowa and I see thread about it but forget the author,sorry,from N Illinois.
It was a vivid red when I checked it out about 10:30 last night.I would think you could have seen it much further south.
According to this website, http://www.spaceweather.com , we might be able to see the aurora borealis for the next several evenings, although they won’t be as intense as they were last night. I was outside at 8 p.m. last night, but I guess the light show didn’t get started until sometime before 9 p.m. I would have loved to have seen that.
This April, I was in Gilroy, CA and saw the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in my life. The sky above the valley in the hills surrounding the ranch I was on was deep, glowing red. It shimmered. I swear, I could hear it shimmer, from deep red to pink to an almost green. Never seen anything like it.
There had apparently been a solar flare, and we were seeing the residual gases or something. So it wasn’t the Aurora Borealis, most likely, but it was still impressive. So impressive, in fact, that I dropped the hood of my friend’s car on his head when I saw the sky.
