- Will we see it in No. Cal? It seems to get cloudy here whenever
there is a big event like this.

- Aurora were photographed in Utah, so it was possible you could've seen
it. Aurora were spotted as far south as NC, and some pretty darn good
aurora in NC at that! That was the strongest geomagnetic storm I've
seen in a long time. It was a good one!
- I didn't have to see it to know. It was cloudy. It always is this
time of year with an 'event' like that.
