Here are 4 photos of the Fri., Apr 21, 2017 aurora taken by a fellow at Keller,
WA (on Lake Roosevelt) -- the image is very similar to what we saw at the BLM

It was between about 9:00 and 10:00. Time is un-predictable at this low
latitude.

What time at night was the Aurora? Would it be about the same time tonight if
it happens again?

Unfortunately the cell phone pis didn't work well. I will try to tweak so into
something semi-acceptable to share. I had my 35mm DSLR but forgot my tripod.
The current storm is now kp=6 so clouds willing, maybe another chance tonigjt.

I know that Michael Finch took some pictures of the nice aurora with his cell
phone. Dan Bakken was using his 41" Dobsonian ("Hercules") to look at Messier
Objects with his wife and daughters.

Awesome aurora tonight. Didn't last long though. M46 was a blast. Jupiter was
good.

Pretty bright aurora to the north. Apparently it is visible in the city in
darker spots. Good show at Fishtrap.
