Well, if we can't see it here, we can see it in Alaska! http://salmon.nict.go.jp/live/aurora_cam/live_aurora_cam_e.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Patrick Wiggins" <paw@trilobyte.net> To: "utah astronomy listserve" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Sunday, January 16, 2005 2:05 AM Subject: [Utah-astronomy] Aurora warning
This was sent out by Sky & Telescope:
+++++ Yesterday's major class M8.6 solar flare is expected to impact the Earth during the mid to late UTC hours of 16 January (within the next 24 hours) and has the potential to produce moderate to strong levels of auroral activity across the middle and perhaps even the lower latitude regions late on 16 and into 17 January (UTC time). For North American observers, the best opportunity to observe activity will probably be during the evening hours on 16 January (Sunday night). +++++
