Description

After the sky had completely clouded over here, I drove over 1 hour south to watch the announced Northern Lights. The sky was not clear there either, but the veil clouds let enough light through. For an hour I could see various bright auroras spread all over the sky before the clouds came there as well. It was an unforgettable event, comparable to a total solar eclipse. More animations will follow...

Here you can see auroras directly at the zenith, which rotated above me like a gyroscope. The sight was simply breathtaking.
