I was able to see them really good last night. I walked to the top of the hill which allows me to see north quite low although they were at times almost directly overhead.

We went out on the deck about eleven last night but couldn't see anything. I think we have
too much light pollution from the twin cities that fades them out.
When I was a kid here in Minnesnowda we would see them in the Winter a lot of the time.
Things change.

We walked down to the lake last night to see them, too. Wonderful.

Checked at 11:00 and 1:30 but did not see any thing. Maybe too late.

Too hazy. City lights white washed the sky.

Southern lights have also been active and visible further north than usual weather conditions permitting.

Cold with a good frost worth the effort.

I don’t know if this is related but twice yesterday I was backing my Outback and the brakes locked and I received a collision warning. There was nothing behind me. I wonder if my seniors were picking anything up?

Wife was mowing today. She said she saw the sky changing shades of blue. Lighter-Darker-Darker-Lighter. Hmm, Northern lights or glitch in the matrix, maybe.

Just got back from a drive away from the city lights and nothing. They say maybe after Midnight, should have gone last night.

We were driving home from some friends that live south of us. So driving north, we saw them when we were driving through areas with less light. Didn't really pick up much color, but those vertical striations were what caught our eye.
I'm kinda glad that we saw them and figured out what they were on our own, then saw all the reports on them afterwards.
