For those that don't know, a large solar storm is occurring this weekend that may allow much of the US to see the northern lights. However, the forecast calls for clouds where I am, and most of the east coast. https://www.space.com/solar-storm-coronal-mass-ejections-mothers-day-weekend-storm-watch

Drove into VT since the forecast looked better and waited out the clouds, got a pretty good view after 2200. No major dancing of lights, but colorful streaks and of course the camera picked up way more than could be seen.
