Looking back on this day in 2013 from around the state of Alaska. It was a St Patricks Day (and night) to remember! Awesome timelapse of the night taken at Hatcher Pass, Alaska (email readers click thru to link).
The Kp level over the past couple days has fluctuated up and down and has risen to 5 a few times. The trend is continuing. More auroras are expected tonight in the entire state of Alaska. Have a look out as soon as it gets dark and all night long, if you have clear skies….
Data is fluctuating but still looking great for lights in Alaska tonight where the weather is clear. Fairbanks will most likely not see anything due to the snow clouds. Kp 5 was observed earlier and still expected again in the overnight. Kp 4 is likely. This means most of Alaska and Canada will see auroras….
On Monday night, the aurora is expected to show at a Kp level of Kp 5, G1 storm from a coronal hole high speed stream. If you noticed the date, March 14, we are right on time for the “traditional” great March shows we have been having several years in a row. Let’s hope for…
Auroras are being seen now in Fairbanks area but clouds may block your view. Simple bands across the sky, looking northeast. Lower on the horizon from Wasilla and south central areas. The Kp level is 2. Time of this post: 1230am Monday 3-14-16
