Indiana
From my wife’s coworker who lives nearby:
We got some good reds and greens tonight in Wisconsin!
This is the best I got tonight. Right after this, they kinda dissolved into the sky which was pretty neat
My first time seeing them, it’s usually -20°F when they are here. I had no idea they changed so quickly! This made my entire life and I can die without regret now lol
Wow, incredible! I’m excited to see what I can see when it gets full dark!
edit: couldn’t see anything in western Washington, and it wasn’t even cloudy! :(
I’m in Colorado at 40°. We couldn’t see it with the naked eye, but you could sure see the colors with night mode on your cell phone. It lasted around 45 minutes here and by the time I went to grab my real camera it was already over. At least I know now that my phone can ‘see’ them even when I can’t.
