JP, if you'd like to have a good idea of what the aurora can look like around the lake, go to the photopost section, click on search, and type in Northern Lights. Some of our members have managed to capture some stunning images!

I see the lightning up north as well. I wish it were down here, since we're not gonna see the aurora...

I guess I knew that all along. Not having too much experience with the Northern Lights I just wasn't sure. I saw them in 2002 or 03 when I was attending SOLO up in Conway. Any thoughts on tomorrow night.

This is sorta cool isn't it?

Thanks for your replies.

It is WAY cool!

And for what it's worth, I'm banking on seeing some tomorrow night. I'll be driving home from North Conway somewhere close to midnight, and looking forward to pulling over a few times to check out the night sky behind me.

...just make sure you watch out for those really big 4 legged Aurora watchers too

.

Some of those areas on Rte 25 where there is not much light pollution could be a good place to get out and stretch...and look skyward!

Have continued safe rides back and forth to N. C. .

Last time I saw them was at the little bridge at the south end of Chocurua Lake in Tamworth. Great clear view across the lake looking north with Mount Chocurua in the distance.
