October 25, 2025 Auroras

Itasca County, MN

I couldn't sleep, so in the early morning hours, I decided to go out and look for auroras, given solar wind conditions were marginally favorable. Indeed, I found some, but they weren't very bright. On the way home, as I was coming back into town, a deer hit me, so this ended up being a very expensive aurora chase.
