After 10PM Local Time. Moon will be big, bright and in your face, but look north and see if the sky has a weird, eerie glow to it. That is the aurora. Watch that glow for 30-40 minutes and see if it changes.

No Aurora here but with my binoculars I bagged 12 of the 110 Messier objects. I was shooting for 20, but the transparency here tonight is not good enough.
