Northern Lights in Vancouver

It looks like you don't necessarily have to go to the Yukon to see the northern lights!  Tonight and tomorrow they could be visible in and around Vancouver (if you find a dark enough spot to view the sky)!
A fast moving cloud of charged particles -resulting from a solar flare is heading towards the earth, and as those charged particles collide with particles in the thermosphere, the result is bright green, yellow and reds in the night sky.

So, set your alarms and find a dark view of the sky!  Check out THIS SITE to see approximate times for viewing!

If you get any pictures -send them to me and we can post them!
