I hope it is back tomorrow night. I was tending to a screaming toddler the whole time so I missed it.
6 0 ReplyI believe it should be. I'm 8 timezones away but our news said yesterday:
expected to arrive as early as today and to persist through until Sunday.

How the hell. I'm in Seattle and watched it and it was so faint, barely visible at all. You wouldn't have even noticed it if you weren't looking for it.
4 0 ReplySurprisingly, even mid-tier phone cameras can take amazing pictures when the naked eye can barely see anything. To me, it looked like barely visible wispy gray-green clouds, but the pictures on my phone are far more vibrant.

Couldn't see shit from my place. Was I looking in the wrong direction? At the wrong time? Or is there just too much light pollution on my street?
3 0 ReplyI'm not sure, there was a ton of light pollution where I was at. It was all over the sky in every direction and moved around.

It came and went where I was. It was difficult to see with street lights so we went to a nearby football pitch which was dark and could see it then.
Phones definitely making it look better than the eye sees it.
Edit: look North
