October 4, 2016 Auroras
Grand Rapids, MN
Bz went south with what I remember was a high speed stream event. Whatever the cause, the auroras were some of the best of the fall season this evening. Again, I went to my "green" shooting location.
The initial auroral band when I arrived and started shooting. |
I decided to set at the end of the dock for a while and check data on my phone. |
Substorm number one begins. |
Auroras expand and start to get dimmer. |
They are starting to fade but are still looking good. |
Rather than proceed to the "pulsating blob" phase, the green arc re-establishes itself. |
Substorm number two, which is more intense than the first one. |
Still growing brighter. |
The show continues. |
Time to shift the view a little more into the sky. |
Still expanding but getting dimmer. The pulsating blob phase is now beginning. |
This is the text that appears underneath the table. |
