Just crazy! The aurora was so strong early last night that it was showing off in spite of fairly bright blue skies during the sunset starting around 10:30 pm. Clouds kept moving in and out, and she never got very high off the horizon, but this was the brightest sky I've ever seen the aurora visible in.

10:45pm.

Sun setting to the west, Denali completely visible on the horizon and aurora to the northeast.
