If you are located north of 45° Go outside when it gets dark. Aurora show incoming

Indiana, Ohio, the whole Northeast, Missouri, all the way to Oregon, if it is clear, check out the skies to the north and see if you can see anything. My house is at 37°N and I probably won't see anything. Moonrise is later, so there will be a period of dark before the moonlight impacts the show.
