Any chance it'll be there tomorrow too?
Seems beautiful in the French alps, wonder if it's worth trying to go there tomorrow

#82First time I've ever seen the aurora from West London - I always assumed the light polution would make it impossible to see, but here's a picture I took of it over the Thames: https://twitter.com/MarkJHandley/status/1789070802459000892

Crazy, even Bern is bathed in Northern Lights

#85This also appears to be happening in the southern hemisphere as well and growing brighter. My layman understanding is auroras are the result of coronal mass ejections interacting with Earth's atmosphere, but I don't recall these incidents being large enough to be so visible in the northern and southern hemispheres simultaneously.
Carrington comes to mind…

#86What's the lowest latitude it's being seen from in Europe?

#87Earlier quoted context omitted.
Where are you located?
SW USA
It really depends how far south you are and how strong the solar storm will get. You should look for some dark place close up. But it might be, that it is only visible on the northern parts of the US. Even seeing it there is quite uncommon.

#88Could a G4 to G5 storm disrupt air planes while in flight?
Do they ever cancel air travel for this level of storm?

That had aurora visible in Florida and Hawaii. It's going to take a little more effort from the Sun to match that.

#90Are we supposed to be able to see anything in North America?
I'd wait until after sunset.
