Aurora Borealis

Without her permission (again) 🤣 Woke up this morning to these beautiful pics she sent to me. It’s the 10th May night for her (Yup! I woke up late coz it’s a Saturday) She's so lucky to see aurora borealis. Making me so jealous 😕

It was a geomagnetic storm man! She danced in the north and south and threw her green and pink dress even further away, that …...it can be seen in India and Melbourne. Why you didn't dance for us in equatorial Singapore?!?

Asked her later, she said she went back to Uni after that and they saw again. She took a few pictures, I chose the top 3 best pictures. 



‘May 10 geomagnetic storm made the aurora visible across a wide stretch of the U.S. was rated a G5, the most extreme, and brought the northern lights to all 50 states.’




KP9 G5 storm.

Said she was outside with her friends near church, she accompany the friends for food, not to be brainwashed 😂, and was outside when they saw it. 



Just so lucky she gets to see it with her own eyes before she returns home



Before she left last year, I told her that there’s a chance for her to see maybe in October to Feb or maybe longer since she’s at 42.9998N and sparse space with less city lights. Based on what I kapo check on 2022, 2023 the lady danced. Our holidays to various National Parks so far the highest north we went was only 37.8571N - Yosemite NP. What are our chances to witness northern lights during our December holiday? The most north we went is 47.6061N in Seattle. Usually less chance as usually northern lights are visible at 60 - 75N unless there’s a geomagnetic storm. 

Some articles and information on this spectacular sighting which only this lucky girl in the family has seen.

I hope I will get a chance to see in when flying into JFK in few days time. Gotta stick my eyes to the window. Cannot sleep. Open my eyes BIG BIG 👀
