Oh, I do hope some of you have gotten to see the displays this evening!

I unfortunately got to see nothing.    It was the perfect conditions clear sky but unfortunately there was no alerts to the incoming event and had gone to bed early. I am thinking that it may have been unexpected?

I got an email alert earlier in the day from SWPC, but at that point, the Kp was 0. It looked like another of their false alerts. I did get another two emails from them, but given the 'cry wolf' tendency, I didn't look until the Bz went north.

Those alerts I was getting seem to be automated.

But it seems that someone knew. Someone could have sent out a note earlier. 7pm EDT is midnight in Europe, right?

Let's chat about this over in the chat area. Topic is Lights are Out.
