No Faerie lights for Dio

I did go to look,,,,

Was about 10:30ish or so,,,,    Last light was 9:01 last eve, full  dark by  9:45 usual,,, the only thing I saw last night was the night sky seemed much brighter than usual, washing out many of the lesser magnitude stars,

But no Auroras for me,,,,    Guess I’m situated a few degrees lower than they were visible.   OR my timing was off and I gave up before the peak of the solar storm, OR something,,, but no I see ’em,,,,   (and I do know they were visible in parts of KY, just not sure how far down as the poster of the pics did not list a location.)

It was most definitely not due to moonlight.   Luna is on a waxing crescent stage, early on, as new moon was just two days ago.

Oh well.

I ain’t ded yet, so the chance of getting to see them at some point is still there.   And maybe one day, I will take that dream trip and go kayaking in the great white north somewhere and paddle under them, (and immediately get Squitched by a calving glacier or something,,,LOL  ‘he died while kayaking, watching auroras and seeing the glaciers,,,, he died happy,,,’)   

Anywhooos,,, its a bucket list thing, low priority sort,,, there are other things on that list that I would like to see, much more intently.  Things that don’t come and go by the whims of SOL and chance of Terra being in the right location.
