I'm very keen on aurora photography, so I am always keeping an eye on spaceweather.com. And tonight (Jan 9) could be a very good opportunity for anyone with clear skies. A massive sunspot blew up a couple days ago and barfed an enormous stream of high-energy protons right at us. The blast is going to arrive tonight, so be sure to take a look!

have my fingers crossed

update: so it is now 8:30 am eastern U.S. on the 10th.... and and and and .

The photos are spectacular and I admit I am being visually greedy

Seriously, hope you either got some great images last night or if they didn't light up they do so tonight - the reports indicate the show may really be tonight on the 10th.
