Solar activity is near maximum for this cycle, and should remain so for the next year, so we ought to be treated with auroral displays throughout much of the country; on this night central Virginia experienced the aurora and my friend Megan Kendle got some great shots of it while out driving around with her husband Faron.  Thanks, Megan!  We would expect that most of the display would be to the north, which in this case it is ~ mouse over the image to see the north circumpolar constellations labeled.
