Alaska resident here…Auroras have been going nuts last few days. My wife and I texted all the neighbors on Monday night. The whole street came out to watch. Usually, we mostly see green and occasionally silver/white. Monday night was was a lot of red/white/green. Reds seem to be the most rare

Looks like you’ve been SLAMMED
That’s so fucking awesome!
I’ve seen some lights in my lifetime, in MT mostly. Can you see other colors (like the rare red, purple, etc) without a camera?

The picture is pretty close to what we saw by the naked eye.
