Follow Beth Allan on Twitter. She is giving some updates. Maybe 3am for the strongest lights, but possibly some before that.

The Aurora phone App isn't calling for much in YYC right now... perhaps after midnight now. But then again the last Aurora night here it wasn't calling for much either and I got several fantastic photos. Also on FB there's a group "Alberta Aurora Chasers" although hard to glean much as it's mostly people just typing "F" (for Following) and other useless chitchat

like some weird ghostbuster slimer.
That's definitely a crazy image. Much better than about 99.548% of the iphone photos.

There was nothing immediately north of Calgary. people were on the road at 3am and saw nothing but a glimmer on the horizon. Apparently it was a REAL light show near Fort Mac. Someone just posted these...

Flew from Comox to YYC this morning, leaving at 5:30.

Captain told us about the lights and turned off the cabin lighting so we could enjoy them.

Nice tough Westjet.

Welcome to the future, time traveller.

The storm arrived this morning, later and weaker than hoped for.

KP6 right now. Density skyrocketing. Reports of seeing them with the naked eye as close as Airdrie. Next hour could be good around Calgary if the clouds don't ruin it.

If you're still awake, look outside right now (1:23 AM). They're visible from inside the city.
