Details:
Woke up around midnight to crystal clear skies. Lightning from thunderstorms in the far off distance was making flashes in the night. I noticed some wispy rays and thought maybe it was Noctilucent Clouds, but upon closer inspection it was intense green air glow rippling across the entire sky. Perhaps some outflow current from the storms, or maybe something to do with the recent X-flare? Whatever it was, it was stunning and the skies were certainly alive last night!
