More Northern Lights, maybe!

[annathepiper]

For those of you who missed Sunday night's light show, according to SeattleTimes.com, there is a possibility of more tonight or tomorrow. Not incredibly high, but worth looking up outside when it's dark anyway! Pass the word!

Please oh Please... for once it's clear here, and I'd like to see em if I can...

Keep your fingers crossed! Also, the article mentions the URL spaceweather.com, which might be worth keeping an eye on in the future for future aurora possibilities. :)

I would*love* to see the Northern Lights. If you have a VLF(Very low Frequency-200Khz on down) receiver, you can hear them.Scott

Hey there Pixie, always glad to see another OKPer show up commenting on my LJ. :) Indeed, I have a paid account.

And yeah, the auroras were REALLY impressive, and I'm very glad I had an opportunity to see them. :)

I'm not sure-I've heard other "natural radio" sources, but not the Northern Lights. There's the "Dawn Chorus"..which can sound like anything from crickets to human choir voices-usually for short bursts. A lot of listening for relatively few sounds, but it is interesting. The easiest thing to do is record it,and dub it down later. Catch-you have to be well away from power lines, or all you'll hear is the 60 cycle hum, or its harmonics.
Do a search under "natural radio' or "dawn chorus"...some of the sites have recordings of it. Scott
