Do you know about the Northern Lights?

I have seen them up in Montana, but they rarely make it this far South (California).

Yes, Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis fascinate me. It makes the skies look so different and visually spectacular. Of course, it could make one feel scary as well. I also think that the Southern Hemisphere equivalent (I think Aurora Australis or something similar ) too would be great but I do not hear that much about it. These lights are perhaps more prominent in Northern parts of Canada and the Nordics- Finland, Sweden etc.

We've seen them a couple of times, not this year, but in years gone by, and it was always in the summer.

Someone here said they are edited!

I saw them on the weather report on the local news last week. I am afraid of being outdoors alone anywhere in the dark, so I didn't go outside for them. Also, the weather woman said it was sometime around 10 p.m. and I was sleeping and didn't hear about it until the next morning

i love the colours too. i haven't seen it in person but this is absolutely a thing that i wanted to see before i die; better than bungee jumping and other adrenaline sports and activities.

My best friend went to Texas to see them really clearly, and the pictures she got were amazing. I couldn’t get myself to care enough to go with her, but I appreciate people who do.

I have seen this on my cousin's Facebook post. For 2 years straight, they've been sharing photos online and they had that privilege to see it in Canada where they currently live. I wish I can see this phenomenon myself.

We have seen them two nights ago. We went out on the balcony, it was announced that the Aurora Borealis was visible.

I’ve always wanted to see them. I went out the other night, but I think we have too many trees here.

Not here. But it is nice to see the videos

I only seen pictures of it. I would love to see it, but I haven't. It's either too cloudy or raining when something spacey happens.

The Northern Lights are very active right now because of a very large solar storm on the Sun. We used to live on Lake Erie and saw the NL one night. It was spectacular and eerie. Have a good week.

It would be fantastic to experience them, I bet. I know they also make sounds. But I'd probably miss them too if they came close, because I'm either asleep or have my windows closed at night.

I've missed seeing them the few times it's apparently been seen in my area. Seems to be more common this year.

I've seen videos of them and yes, the colours are amazing. In the southern hemisphere we have the Aurora Australis or southern lights. You don't normally see them this far north but this year there have been sightings. We saw them once when we lived further south.

I love the color of the northern lights. I heard it showed up last week in Ireland where we used to live more than a decade ago. I hope to see it in the future.
