Should be a good show.
Local midnight, point North, med - long exposures depending on latitude and location.

Avoid the lights AND the dessert. Neither are good for lenses with all that glare and sticky whipped cream. |

Ah yes...but look at it this way, you can teach them about quantum magnetic interferences and pass it off as an educational field trip. :)

You can see it from Mass. Should be able to see it here in CT as well with a Kp of 7-8. Look north and you'll see a nice glow.
Course, you could look south as well....but not from here. :)

Yeah...just teach the kids how to write an integral sign, and some Greek letters. People tend to smile, nod, and believe you when you write Greek letters.

Local midnight, as a general rule....whatever your own time zone is. There is an optimal time of course, but around midnight will be the darkest.

| I got nothing. Just some low lying clouds reflecting lights. I thought at first I had something, but after 4 subsequent photos, I realized they were clouds. :( |

I live in Georgia, we don't ever get to see things like this. :(
This is rarer than snow!
I wonder if it has ever been big enough to see from here?
