Re: Northern Lights! GO LOOK RIGHT NOW!

They peaked here in the far eastern part of the state from about 5:45 - 6:00. They have dropped off a quite a bit but are still there and flare up a bit in spots if you wait and watch.

Re: Northern Lights! GO LOOK RIGHT NOW!

I wondered if other people were seeing the show. I was walking out tonight, and noticed the dancing colors. Called my wife and a couple of friends to have them run outside and watch the lights. Excellent way to end a great night of deer hunting.
 
I'M RIGHT ON THE DUBUQUE/JACKSON COUNTY LINE AND STILL A GREAT SHOW HERE AT 9:41 PM , ALMOST LIKE DAYBREAK BUT IN THE NORTH. COOL MAN

i was wondering what was going on when i was dragging "spike" out of the timber tonite. awesome still at 10:20.
 
Thats awesome you guys in the lower can see some of the mothers beuty. Known as aurora borealis, these mysterious light shows are caused by the interaction of solar wind with the earths magnetic field. Solar wind and the earths magnetic field combine, creating huge amounts of electricity. this electricity, in turn, discharges in the North and South poles emitting bursts of light known as auroras. These strands of light can be thousands of miles long. The various colors of the aurora are the result of electrons interacting with oxygen and nitrogen. The green colors are happening at 70 miles above the earth and the red at about 60 miles above the the earth. Blue-red auroras are caused by nitrogen atoms and are the rare, all red auroras are caused by oxygen molecules and occur about 200 miles above the earth's surface.
