#NorthernLights #aurora from Southern Michigan earlier this evening. Err, well in this case. Overhead, East. West. And the Southern horizon. It didn’t matter. The whole sky aglow. These are just the iPhone too! #miwx welcome to an elite tier solar max!

The green in the ghost matches up pretty close with the green color of airglow! In other words, if someone were trying really hard to understand if this is glowing atomic oxygen, (557nm) it would put it alongside airglow and green aurora, and a height at or above 80km
Captured my first GHOST TLE above a sprite with @sdantwx over OK overnight on 6/17/23 However, I also captured it during an excellently visible airglow show happening at the same time.... 1/ @PaulMSmithphoto @PecosHank @spaceweatherman @TamithaSkov

Version 2.2 is now released! This means 2022 tornado data is out, along with pre-1680 tornadoes in Europe and environment data back to 1879. Read the update blog here: tornadoarchive.com/home/2023…
Northbound lanes were then wasted their entire green waiting for opposing traffic, and then had to run the red to go north. It’s a complete mess. This was all local and trucker traffic at the time.
Thankfully it seems to be working out fine. In our case we were the 8th car in line going southbound this morning. Out of 40+ cars. The light went green for about 2-3 seconds tops. The 5 additional cars ran and so did we, and the remaining 40 behind us as one mass 1/
If I’m making any point at all here it’s that literally everyone all day long has been doing this. And CDOT should address the root cause.
For what it’s worth Roger people have been running them all day long. The sequence is messed up, only allowing 2 car though, or basically none. and going green while a mile of opposing traffic is present.
There are actually two of these north of last chance. And just for fun, in both cases the light’s sequence is messed up so you might completely waste a green light waiting for opposing traffic to finish getting through.

The March 23, 2023 severe geomagnetic storm... revisited in timelapse - 3400+ photos over 7 hours combined into a 30 fps movie.
Sit back and enjoy the best night of aurora I have ever seen in my life.
These photos took almost 20 hours to render on my computer.

Despite some similarities, aurora in the mid latitudes is vastly different to me even at its strongest than average aurora at high lats. Coronas show this most strongly - slower motion and weaker structure but more pulsing and big colors. Not sure why but it's interesting 🤷♀️
