The latest geomagnetic storm had a second surge on a second night. It was not as strong, but still enough to keep the northern light night show going. The Planetary K index peaked at 5. This still means the viewing was limited mostly to northern latitudes.
In this follow up collection we have some photos from the Northern US and International Space Station in addition to Canada.
Time lapse of the incredible #Aurora display early Thursday morning in Marshall, North Dakota around 2 a.m. Some cool pillars dancing across the night sky and even a few meteors! I had to wait for this one, but it was worth it. #NorthernLights #NDwx 🟢🟢 @spann @TamithaSkov pic.twitter.com/6p4FJVH48J

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here you may have missed it:
I have dyslexia, and found out at my second year at Cornell. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree, and being first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region.
I do miss mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse.
All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky.
There is no editor that can check my work when I need it and have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline.
I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me…
It’s part of my charm.
