When we got home last evening, I checked the space weather - http://spaceweather.com/ and saw that aurora had been sighted in Park City - the sun's activity over the last few days has me on the watch. Then I checked http://www.sec.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html and saw that conditions were favorable. So we went outside (at around 10:00) and to the north-east of our home in Lindon, the sky was blue-green with the mountains against it. There were also a lot of clouds with those to the north reflecting the orange glow of Salt Lake City's lights. We got out our binoculars and peered into the blue-green area near the mountains and could see stars through that patch - so it wasn't just a reflection on clouds. It disappeared around 10:30 as the cloud cover thickened. I tried to call Rich to see if it was really an aurora, but just got his answering machine... Did anyone else see it?
