Some coronal holes are always observable on the sun. Displays of the aurora therefore might be seen regularly from high latitudes.

At present there is a nice aurora show visible from my location in north central North Dakota. The auora extends across the entire northern sky and is primarily a generalized diffuse glow however there is some banding and rays. The aurora is not particularily bright, but it's been a very long time since I've seen anything at all.

I see a few other reports streaming in from the northwest US. It'd probably be visible from here (Homer, Alaska) except for the typhoon that we seem to be in the middle of at this time! Darn the luck!

It has subsided quite a bit so I went to bed. But I woke up an hour ago and the aurora was going strong. It was not as widespread as earlier, but the banding was much more pronounced and brighter, and there was a bit of red.

Great. I was tired from an all-day hike in the mountains and went to bed early. Well, there were a lot of clouds and lightning in the southern sky. But it looks like I should have been outside even though I'm at 40N - in Colorado for now. But it looks like the Bz got down to -13.
Dennis, I'm glad you managed to catch some.
