This has changed color 3 or 4 times now.

Autzen Stadium. Eugene, OR.

Drove out above Cape Horn in The Columbia Gorge last night, and the show was absolutely incredible. Just kept going too. Watched until 2-3am.

From Fitton Green, all 3 second exposures.

Spokane checking in

Last night was absolutely insane. Took these just east of Birch Bay.

It showed up later than I thought but when it did wow.

Summer!

Currently visiting family near Vancouver, WA. It got up to 90 today and felt amazing. Went on a hike at Lacamas lake trail and even caught a glimpse of Mount Hood, which I almost never get to see

Amazing show! Gotta say it's so nice to be on the clear side for a change with one of these.

Wish it looked like this to the naked eye more. Just before 11 it was really cool though.

This is pretty amazing now that the moon has set.

Some more pics from the north beach. The color is so vivid!

Down to 74 after a high of 86.

Daughter is getting some swimming in.

Made it to just outside of Whistler. So many people just parked out on the side of the road. Way too many folks outside of Britannia Beach thinking that running across a highway after parking on a tiny shoulder is perfectly fine. Nearly got in an accident when a couple in a Honda just pulled out without their headlights. Caught the lights as far south as Marysville and then dawn was bright enough to wipe them out. Looking forward to tonight and given the state of the sun and the history of these storms, it'll be fun to see what we get over the next three months.

Pretty net night last night. What a blessing to see the solar storm show we saw. I only ever saw the Northern Lights once before in Alaska, but this was pretty incredible for the PNW as well!

Managed to catch a video of the light moving around. Though it was over for a bit but then another wave of it came out of nowhere. IMG_7522.mov

From my friend in north Seattle

never thought i’d be able to see the northern lights down in corvallis so this is incredible

Went up to the highschool because it has a really great view north and east and surprisingly the gate was open. Got some really good pics up here.

Downtown Springfield, Oregon Holy fuckking shit. Incredible!!

BACK TO BACK 90 DAYS AT PDX!

Yep! Will try harder to stay awake tonight. Going to pretend it’s the night of 12/29/21 / early morning of 12/30/21 and stay awake until after midnight!

Obviously the most impressive northern light display I've seen down here. 1400 pics...going to take a long time to edit. Phone pic for now. Was really rocking around 1030-11, 1130, and 130-2.

It happened here, too! Pic not taken with an iPhone.

Yeah it's gotten much better here too. Some really nice pops of color now, visible right from our front porch.

Aurora got brighter! Some colors, too. At Deception Pass.

Saw Tiger’s pic, stepped outside, and was in utter awe. Unreal.

Back 2 back 90’s 4 PDX. Not too shabby!

A dog cabana! Does it come with a cocktail server and a $500 food and drink minimum? Up to 85 here. Bella says it could be a couple degrees cooler but no real complaints.

85F in Lewiston. About 80F at home. Perfect day for the river.As my son says, not too hot or too cold for it. Enjoying the time at Hells Gate State Park by the Snake River.

What a difference a day makes.

Fell asleep so I missed it but this is how it looked down here.

Not bad! The most I got was a dusting during the early morning hours of February 15th. Starting this winter I will begin recording snowfall at my place, which I should mention, is in the Puget sound convergence zone. Anyways, I don't wanna go off-topic considering this is a May weather thread

I have seen more intense shows in Washington State before. But the duration of this seems intense. I don’t remember an event in my lifetime where so many people across the country from coast to coast have seen the northern lights. That’s pretty special.

Texting my 72 year old dad pictures of this back and forth at midnight is great.

Is this overperforming? I took an edible and am dying.

A couple snaps

I tried to get to Crown Point to take pictures of the Northern Lights but thousands of people were doing the same thing so I parked along the side of the road next to someone's house. I took a few pictures but they were ok but when I got home, these pictures were amazing

Literally left speechless, I was amazed how much of this I could see with my naked eye

Absolutely unreal.

Beautiful afternoon at Dougan Falls. Temps were in the low 80s up there and water temps were cold

The only thing better than this is snow.

Cashmere.
