Go out in your buses tonight and the next couple of days. Northern lights will be overhead as far south as northern Washington and same latitude states across the USA. Enjoy. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EozQD1MXcAAW5Sr?format=jpg&name=900x900

Thanks for the heads up!

Funny part is that almost 100% of Wisconsin is further north than where I am in Canada! I'm on the edge of that visible overhead line lol.

Thanks for the heads up! Always a beauty to look at 😁
