Does anyone know if the northern lights will still be visible tonight? Did anyone see them earlier this week?

Here is a site that will "produce a forecast map customized for your longitude" for the Aurora Borealis.

Thanks for the link, Barry(the enlightening one)Barris. Although the sky is starry here, there's a lot of light pollution. I've gone outside around 9 or 10 at night for the last few days but haven't seen anything unusual. Maybe I'm just too far south.

If you like skywatching, the Leonids meteor shower is coming around, Nov. 16th-18th.

I'll be watching, donny. I'm like a little kid when it comes to shooting stars. I think we had meteor showers last year. I stayed up to watch, then woke my husband up. He wasn't impressed although we saw about 20 shooting stars in about three or four minutes.

Details about the Leonid meteor shower: http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/space/20011106/sc/leonid_meteor_storm_when_where_and_how_to_watch_1.html

They say it will be the best display in our lifetimes, and another like it won't be around until 2099.
