September 19, 2014 Auroras

Ball Club, MN

An unexpected geomagnetic storm brought auroras. An incoming storm system also brought clouds to Grand Rapids, so I drove a bit northwest to get out from underneath the low clouds, but there were also some higher clouds coming in from the northwest, to the best I could do was to try to sandwich myself in between the two cloud decks.
