I tip from a reliable source we may be able to see the Aurora Borealis tonight in Northern California. It is supposed to peak at 12:00AM.

OK I can give it a go if I see anything. I have only got a Canon SD 13000 IS.

It probably would be tough to see if your in the city. All the city lights may outshine the aurora especially this far south.

Thats cool!! Ive seen it like that on fishing trips into Ontario Canada

I looked from 11:00pm to 1:00am when the lights were supposed to peak at 12:00am and we did not see any of the lights. At first we though we vaguely saw some lights. However we think it was lights from Stockton or Lodi in the valley.

I just look at it like a mental patient staring at a wall...ha! The Moon is between Jupiter on top, and Venus on bottom...sounds like a party to me!

 

[Motherlode Chameleon]

I just checked and I see two lager stars that could be planets. Party on!!

 

[Eltortu]

West coasters, go outside and watch the Moon rise to the East...eerie...

 

[Eltortu]

Again west coasters, go outside and watch the Moon, Venus and Jupiter in almost perfect align...
