Looks like Denise got “a hit” and the message from the Sphere Alliance was verified…and on scehduled! Also got a private double confirmation in an email from Denise of whom she is talking to… which I may write up later… so fun! -AK
Aurora borealis glows in central Virginia, seen as far south as Texas (Photos) By Angela Fritz June 23 at 10:30 AM

A series of coronal mass ejections over the past few days have hurled bursts of solar gas and magnetic field at our planet, sparking a severe geomagnetic storm and pushing the aurora borealis deep into the Lower 48.
On Monday night, the northern lights were photographed in states that rarely get to witness the optical manifestation of a solar storm. The Northeast was brimming with hues of green, pink and purple, but photographers in Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Arkansas and even Texas.
If you happened to head outside around 1:30 a.m. in central Virginia, you might have caught this view. A very dark sky was needed to see the aurora down here, but David Murr in Louisa, Va., shared some great northern lights with us.
Wowwowwow . . . wish I lived out where it was dark enough to have a chance of seeing an aurora. I wonder if anyone offers aurora-viewing tours of Canada or Alaska? Thanks for bringing the show to us, Angela. Anne
I was outside until shortly after midnight, but was not able to see any aurora. I did see two satellites and a meteor, so it wasn’t a total waste of time
