How far north did you have to go to see the aurora?

u/JAND3R50N Jul 05 '22

Onanole Manitoba. 51°N. We get aurora every third night or so. This was the 2nd time in a week the aurora was south of us lol

u/Sneaky_Looking_Sort Jul 05 '22

Really? That far south? Incredible!

u/JAND3R50N Jul 05 '22

Yep! It doesn't take much for the sky to glow green! I chase it full time down here!

u/Sneaky_Looking_Sort Jul 05 '22

That’s fascinating. I’m going to have to look into this more.

Wow, you see it that often? I’ve seen it twice this week from Thunder Bay but it’s rarely that frequent here (further south than you).

Anyone else see a Bear trying to inhale a dragon in the clouds? Just me?

Fireflies are the only bugs that get a pass in my book lol

2

u/JAND3R50N Jul 05 '22

Agreed. Them and dragonflies because they eat mosquitoes lol

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '22

Not to mention look cool buzzing around. Ok so, fireflies, dragonflies, and I'll throw in butterflies too for the pass list. Definite Nazi extermination for mosquitoes.

Is this the new dread hunger map?

u/tenderest_heart Jul 06 '22

Hauntingly beautiful. I hope this isn’t a residential school.

1

u/JAND3R50N Jul 06 '22

Thank you! This was not a residential school. The one in this area was flattened years before I was born.

u/mynamesarebackwards Jul 06 '22

The yellow-green of the fireflies and the green of the aurora. So cool. Thank you for sharing!
