Last night, after midnight 25 April, in the company of over 2 dozen deer (I had no idea lol!) The aurora danced a lovely minuet in the neighbourhood! 🥰 #Scotland @TamithaSkov @chunder10 @cassidy_rachel @James_Akrill
@TamithaSkov “yesterday on HF, D-layer absorption was unusually higher than expected. The 40m band was practically closed despite the heavy flares were 2 days ago. Is there still stuff in transit or other activity keeping the ionosphere unsettled?”
Od czwartku mamy epizod wyższej aktywności słonecznej. Skraj jednego z CME po rozbłysku M1.2 z 23.04 może nas musnąć dziś wieczorem z szansą na słabą burzę (G1), ale pewność modelu jest niska: #250426" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">polskiastrobloger.pl/p/live-solar-u…
W polu LASCO C3 i CCOR-1 także kometa C/2025 R3 (PanSTARRS).Some shots from last nights 3 #Aurora, #northernlight substorms, taken at the Dutch island #Terschelling Around 00:15, 00:45, and 01:20 AM (local Time) Including some #Bioluminescence in the ocean. @TamithaSkov @chunder10 @Vincent_Ledvina @Zeevonk_ @helgavanleur @StormchaserNL
Anyone know what's causing the R3 disturbance?
Late to the party from Friday night 4/17 till 4am when the blueish rays come into play. We battled clouds state wide. Bummed I miss Steve and a picket fence Saturday night, but friends got it! :) North Bend, Washington. @TamithaSkov @theauroraguy @komonews #wawx
This nights aurora show was stunning. I got sone good pics and now the cloud has rolled in. Thankful for the opportunity. About 2 hours of activity before the clouds came in. 🥳 @TamithaSkov @chunder10 @James_Akrill @cassidy_rachel @silverstingray

A surprisingly good aurora display last night. The stats from the Coronal Hole HSS weren't amazing, but the skies were clear so I took a punt. At 2345, the sky began to brighten & the substorm hit. Just shows that each aurora is its own beast - if you stay in, you can't win!
@TamithaSkov We just had a nice 7min show here at the northern shores of the Netherlands with lots of beamers visible to the naked eye!
The disturbance ahead of the coming fast solar wind is finally strong enough for decent substorming! Aurora photographers at mid-latitudes expect to see mild, but sporadic shows now. These will build stepwise over the next 24-48 hours, as the fast wind will arrive in two stages.
Check out this insane Red Arc with Green Diffuse Aurora (RAGDA) seen in Twizel, NZ yesterday 🤯 I’ve never seen anything like that #aurora #northernlights #auroraborealis
