Last night, the aurora came out, but not the Kp 5 as hoped!

Yesterday, the Kp level rose to a 5 and many were excited. However, when nightfall came to the USA and Canada, the level dropped a bit. Those in Anchorage also watched the clouds roll in. Fairbanks and the interior caught a fabulous show. The temperature hovered around -25F.

Clouds, but warmer weather, are in store for us in Fairbanks tonight.

Feels like forever since the skies have been clear at the same time the space weather cooperated. Last night both delivered in fine form! Clear skies brought -25F, but remember, it’s a “dry” cold!
