The show that was put on last night was due to a solar storm that has been expanding “through the inner solar system” over the weekend.
If you missed the show last night, there is always next time!
It’s important to remember that for a breathtaking observation, viewers should find a location that is free of light pollution. So stay away from city lights.
Clouds, precipitation, and the full moon make it difficult to see the aurora as well.
