Aurora in not only the northern sky but it was also creating an upper arch in red that ran almost east to west like a rainbow

Here’s a new one to me… Aurora Borealis in the East and West (as well as North), arching overhead like a rainbow? Yesterday Earth was impacted by the strongest magnetic storm of the current solar cycle! However, the storm wasn’t particularly strong by the time it was dark here on the west coast so I’m not sure if this Auroral arch is due to the high intensity of the storm earlier in the day or what may have caused it, but it’s something I’ve never seen before. Any of my friends out there know the cause or have theories on this?
