Details:
Last night the 19th was wild to see aurora with protons then SAR with a 60+ BZ on going. I watched the data to see if it would flip before heading to bed but the only thing it was doing was slowly going south. But by midnight in Missouri the BZ was negative. So I left my camera outside while I slept. About 4 am I woke up to check data and saw some bonkers data and ran out in the cold to see that aurora was visible with the naked eye. Around 5 am we had blue and Purple pillars dancing. This storm was insane for how fast it left the sun then produce aurora on multiple times.
