Faint aurora band in the sky over the Fairbanks area, not quite overhead. Very faint if you are near any kind of light pollution. Some clouds. Report in from Nordale Rd (open sky, dark), North Pole, Cleary.

Fairbanks area, hit or miss tonight with the aurora….if you have clouds you may not see much. Without clouds, you may see a green haze. Look to your north.

The Canadian Geographic January/February 2013 issue has great information about the aurora in an easy to read and interesting format. Also, information about photographing the northern lights!
