AURORA UPDATE: Science-y post: let’s talk about the visible APPEARANCE/“STRUCTURE” of the aurora you may get to see if a G4 “severe” geomagnetic storm occurs TONIGHT. (That's the current forecast from the Space Weather Prediction Center).
Auroras are located 60-150+ miles above the ground in the thermosphere, high above the ozone layer. The reason we see glowing gases (plasma) is because gas molecules are “excited” by a bombardment of energetic solar particles.
Stronger/more energetic solar particles burrow deeper into our atmosphere. The strongest ones ionize nitrogen molecules (N2), causing hues of violet or even blue. Weaker ones can’t make it as deep, and ionize oxygen. The lowest-energy particles, corresponding to the highest part of the atmosphere (since they can’t penetrate as deep), cause red.
That’s why the aurora isn’t one color. A single pillar may be blue or purple at the bottom, then mostly green above, and frosted with pink or red at the top!
If you live in far northern areas, you’ll see a mix of everything, especially green, IF the aurora manages to shimmer overhead. You might even see the “corona” effect as you stand directly beneath auroral pillars/columns. The motion will be impressive… reminiscent of garments on a laundry line fluttering in the breeze.
Most folks across the north central U.S. will probably see green columns of varying vibrancy. You may see some red at the top.
And lastly, those in southern areas will see mainly a red glow. Why? You’re the farthest away, so you can only see the top of the aurora. And it’s red! That’s why most photos from the southern United States have shown only a red “homogenous arc.” You won’t see any motion either.

Incredibly proud to announce that I'm partnering with @GhostGamer
This is a brand I've been wanting to work with for months, if not years. Been using their products for quite a while. Obviously everyone knows how great tasting their energy drinks are but their pre-workouts Legend and Pump, and their Whey protein have been staples of my training regimen as well.
Code 'TCAPTAINX' will save you 20% off on any of their products if you want to try some yourself!

@TCaptainX_ Ay I ain't around in chat, but I do lurk without talkin, and let me say this man. Congratulations. I remember when you were at what, 3 thousand? Watching you grow has honestly been a privilege, even after I lost interest in your main category. I had the pleasure of graduating

ONLY ON KOMO: TERRIFYING VIDEO shows the suspect in an ongoing SWAT incident FIRING INDISCRIMINATELY at neighbors. This is happening in Everett. SWAT standoff still happening. NO NEIGHBORS ARE HURT, but this situation is ongoing for 7 hours now. There is now a bullet hole through the neighbor’s window. That neighbor shared this video with us.
