Title: Northern Lights
Post by: wadesworld on November 12, 2025, 09:03:23 PM
They were incredible in Columbia last night. My mom has been on the hunt for them for a couple years now and had little success (we saw them very faintly last year when I was up in Wisconsin).

Is anybody seeing them near the Milwaukee area tonight? Any ideas on good spots to find them/parks that might be a good spot?

Bro, I was thinking the literal same thing.

I found this: https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/aurora-30-minute-forecast

It doesnt look like the view from anywhere in the southern Wisconsin is a good view according to that. But I'm following because I also want to see them.

I saw a Fox6 Facebook post with comments of people sharing pretty impressive pictures of them in Campbellsport and Plymouth. Google says the northern edge/upper parking lot of Harrington Beach State Park.

They were extremely visible to the naked eye here last night.

I saw the NL here in Connecticut last year.  They were supposed to be visible last night here too however we unfortunately had a cloudy night.

I thought this was going to be a Death Cab for Cutie thread.   Or perhaps a tribute to I Ran by Flock of Seagulls.   

There have been some amazing sights and colors.

I feel that liking this kind of stuff is pretty feminine, but I will say some of the pics friends have taken the past couple of nights are quite impressive.

Damn. I couldn't get the pic to post. Yeah I know ... OK, Boomer.

You'll have to take my word for it that it's cool.
