In looking over some recent images, I came to realize that there were a few good aurora events that I never posted on here…this one is from September 30th, 2025.
Some of these shows don’t last very long…like just a few minutes and then they fade away. Of course there’s no way to catch them all and have any kind of normal sleep pattern. Every now and then though, you get lucky…right place, right time.
It was a rather slow summer for the lights but as we moved into fall, we’ve had a few chances, even at the lower latitudes such as Iowa. If you live farther north…say Alaska…they have probably been almost a nightly occurrence.
