That's spectacular.

The camera picks up way more color than what the eye does.   You could see them well this time though.  ITs been a long time

It was Lady A.   Steve showed up too. LOL   

I got a new shutter release remote for my camera and was getting it ready.  THe big storm was supposed to be last night.   I happened to look at the numbers and they were though the roof.    I jumped outside and looked and could see them.   I ran through the house shutting off all the lights and gathered clothes as I went.

So Steve
Is this cloud like ribbon.   Aurora chasers named the phenomenon as a joke back in 2016.   NASA playing along came up with an Acronym for it that matched.  I am mad at myself.  I was showing my wife the lights for her first time and she pointed out this ribbon like cloud. I acknowledged that it looked different but basically passed it off as just another cool looking cloud.   Some folks got some incredible shots of it as well.

I'm not a video guy but I did my first time lapse with my photos.  It went from about 830 to 0130 in the morning.  My camera battery died.   The peak was about 1100 to 1130 with a KP of 8.

Thanks Sky!

This is what it looked like at 0830 when I got my camera hooked up.  I took a pic of my viewfinder with my iPad to text my kids to go outside to look up.(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/v47/boneaddict/CC50AAA2-CB26-4377-BA85-2F3B5DD076BD.jpeg)

There are a couple apps.   "Aurora Alerts" is one I think.  I think you pay for the alert or text.   I use the free portion and just keep an eye on it.
