Apparently, we could’ve seen it in Mississippi, but I didn’t think we would so I didn’t go outside last night darn it and it did show up. These are all beautiful pictures. I miss living up north.

We did get a great view of the Aurora in DeSoto County, Mississippi. But we are the northern most county..

There looks to be another chance to see it tonight!

Hey @Mach-Lee , @Reiko , and all other science types. Is there any special precautions to take for the Mach-E's or EVSE's with this forecast for 2 more days?

I had no problems with GPS while flying my drone. Accuracy may be less but it still worked.

It would affect your AM radio reception, but most people aren’t listening to distant AM stations these days. Possibly Sirius reception, but didn’t try it.

Power lines could experience some additional disruptions, but I wasn’t seeing any spikes in my line voltages.

So pretty minor impacts unless the storm takes critical infrastructure offline. I haven’t seen any damage reports yet.

Got some faintly naked-eye visible colors here in northern AZ. Cameras with longer dwell times make all the difference.

I live in the Denver area and I’m ashamed I missed it! I’m going to try and go up towards NoCo tonight and hopefully I get a good view, but looks like I really missed my opportunity last night considering the cloudiness tonight :(

Finally processed some photos from my camera instead of just taking them off the phone. This was taken several hours after the ones I posted earlier.
