    Chance of Aurora Forecast For Tonight - US and Europe. (4/13/13)

    According to Accuweather, Aurora will be visible in the some areas of the Northern Part of the US and Europe.



    for the United Kingdom and Europe:



    Viewing conditions will be best in the mid-Atlantic, specifically for parts of Pennsylvania and the Delmarva. Most of the country will have poor to fair views as a result of cloud cover, with areas further south not experiencing the aurora at all. A pocket of fair conditions sits over parts of Oregon into Washington and southern Idaho. A swath of partly cloudy conditions will also spread over a section of the Ohio Valley for parts of Michigan, Indiana and Illinois. Ohio will experience fair to good viewing conditions. For the rest of the country conditions will be poor.
    The northern lights may also be visible for parts of northern Europe, including Scandinavia, most of Russia and the British Isles, and as far south as the northern parts of Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, Latvia and Estonia. Unfortunately, many of those areas will be experiencing a good deal of cloud coverage.
    We've been rainy or overcast for much of the week. Hopefully it clears up and I can finally see my first Aurora.

    Not going to see shit, if this cloud cover doesn't dissipate significantly. It's at least 50% cloud cover right now.

    Can't wait till I move up into the far north country. I'll be seeing a lot of aurora's.
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    haha - Yeah, yeah, yeah, anyway, it's been lovely here today. I went out as a mountain bike guide this morning (tripsforkids.org) and had a ball, then came home and mowed, now I'm cleaned up, having a cold Molsen, and my darling wife and I are about to head out for some grub.

    The ride was great this morning and the kids had a ball. 50ish degrees and every time we crossed a creek, they all jumped in. We do this every year and this is my third year as their guide.

    Cool. I'm hoping it's that warm here tomorrow. I want to start working on the Rambler.

    Back "home" (CA) it's in the 70's with no wind...

    Dammit.

    If it makes you feel any better, here on the Islets it's "only" 61 °F (16 °C) and overcast, with 12 mph winds from the west.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Simple solution. Work on it in the cold. Within a few minutes you won't even notice it. I work on stuff outside in the cold all the time, even when its way below freezing and most of the time I feel warm after a few minutes.
