I saw a small show around 11:00 p.m. on tues but the forcast was for a bigger one. i had given up at 2:00 a.m. weds took one last look out my bedroom window and saw somthing happening. Woke the kids up and was treated to a one hour show with all colors and flashes of light. I will post a heads up next time the is a chance for one.

I saw them Sunday night, 07 Nov.
I went to Carleton about 2300 to look for any sign of life on the railroad there; saw nothing so I started heading back home. As I passed New Boston, I saw what appeared to be a tornado in the sky. I pulled over, then I realized what it was I saw.
I didn't see any of the moving or any of that -- it was just a green curtain-looking displayin the sky.
After midnight, the sky toward the northeast brightened considerably -- it almost looked like very early sunrise toward the northeast.
I missed the Tuesday-Wednesday display, though; I'm sure there will be other shots at it, though.
