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. |
