I looked at the sky around midnight, but unfortunately I didn't see anything, luckily the weather is good and there are almost no clouds, so maybe I'll have more luck tonight. In any case, very nice photos

The aurora has an ebb and flow to it so you might just have to be more patient (if you have the time). The fact that there were no clouds and we're in a new moon phase should have made for awesome viewing though. I bet it was there; maybe just not when you looked? Hopefully tonight!
Overcast last night driving home from casino didn't see jack, bummer.
You probably saw enough brightly-coloured, dancing lights at the casino anyway
Maybe tonight! They're still active and the sun unleashed another X class flare as well from the same spot so it's not over yet.
all gray sky in NJ
at 11 and 12 and 12:30 🕧
went to bed and maybe it shows tonight.
Yeah it was cloudy here as well. I tried for hours to catch a glimpse through the cracks - it was reminiscent of trying to see the recent the eclipse; in that case I succeeded but only for a very brief moment. The weather gods hate me. I know people in New York who were able to see it but they were near Rochester - apparently the best time in the north-east was between 10 and 11 if you had clear skies but I also saw reports of viewings just before sunrise this morning in New York. I guess you have to be patient, watchful and lucky enough to get clear skies. In saying that, the event of 2003 was so bright and long-lasting, all you had to do was look up and southward - that aurora lasted for hours and I spent the whole time on the roof at work (I was on nights). If anybody asks, I was inspecting vent pipes.
edit: If anyone is awake in Dunedin, NZ right now, the aurora is quite visible there and it looks like mostly clear skies.
