What Was Seen In The May Night Sky

Friday evening the rains put the kibosh on all of us peninsula dwellers attempt to see the northern lights.  Saturday evening I fell asleep with the dog trying to stay up for the show.

I awoke at 1 AM Sunday morning; and stepping outside was greeted by this.  

A very different borealis display than previous ones I've witnessed.  No flickering flames; a rather diffuse colorful glowing sky instead.  Stars and constellations visible.  Pleasing but uninspired. 


A buddy from Algoma shared that thee was a short-lived (less than ten minutes) burst of activity at 11:30 PM on Saturday.  There are gone.  Photo credit: Kevin Naze.
