This satellite image acquired overnight showcases some cool features uniquely revealed by #VIIRS Day Night Band:
1) the #AuroraBorealis!
2) snow capped mountains illuminated by Aurora light
3) moon-lit cloud tops and a Pacific Low

Another striking overnight scene with several light sources at play in DNB imagery starting with a broad #AuroraBorealis over Canada to lightning streaks in the central U.S. amidst anvil cloud tops illuminated by moonlight. City lights and fracking flares also dot the landscape. https://t.co/ShS6XbKThh

“Five is just amazing. I am stunned,” said Mike Wiltberger, a scientist at NSF NCAR. “It is very rare.”

The current solar storm (w/ 5 coronal mass ejections in 24 hrs) may bring the #auroraborealis & interfere with power grids:https://t.co/UMe2PoFtEJ https://t.co/HKzIkwKlCw

The G5 #AuroraBorealis from space last night at 2am CDT. So incredibly bright and wide blanketing all of Canada and several U.S. northern tier states. Absolutely amazing. #WIwx #MIwx #OHwx #PAwx #NYwx #VTwx #NHwx #MAwx More satellite views of this event at https://t.co/N94utqlp7f https://t.co/89ofpnCEz9

RT @scottrockphoto: This morning, before sunrise, vibrant pinks dominated the sky over Chantry Island on Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada. It might not have been as strong as the weekend, but it was a great show visual to the eyes!

#Nature never ceases to amaze us. 🌠

The #AuroraBorealis is a true wonder of the world, a breathtaking reminder of the beauty and power of nature.

If you haven’t already, is seeing it in person on your bucket list? https://t.co/5fMr9cbAD7
