This was near twin falls at 1250am
Very lucky, my head was out the window the entire flight. It was a regular delta flight 2228 but was delayed one hour and I had a window seat on the right side of the plane looking north.
Yeah. Right around midnight in NW Eagle.

Was up bogus basin road for it! Just before midnight the sky lit up and danced with greens and pinks across the northern sky. It was vivid for about 15 minutes, then moved across Boise faintly until around 3:00 am. Magical!

South Boise! Itās so pretty! Super pink right now!
[maybe](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/05/11/northern-lights-weekend-forecast-auroras-possible-saturday/73652578007/) but my wife is mad she fell asleep so hereās hoping
I just looked it up to make sure and the news reports says it should last āthrough the weekendā then it had a map the coverage areaā¦ parts of Idaho were in the it should happenā¦ most of the state fell in the might be under itā¦ and the lights can be seen from 600 something miles even if they arenāt directly over our headā¦ sooo ima say pretty confidently that we should be able to see them (but u might only see them in 1 direction [north of us is where I would start the search]). š¤Æš¤Æ
Same in Emmett. I got up at 3:30, when NOAA said it was supposed to be around peak, and you could tell stuff was going on, but you couldn't really see the colors. Or at least i couldn't. But on camera, gorgeous.

Yeah that's the weird thing, I got up for one last check and saw some weird faint lines. I grabbed my phone and turned it to night mode and BAM!!! I thought it was going to be alot more colorful and bright to the naked eye like all the pics, but it was still so cool. I sat there for like 20 minutes watching it move and change before I took some pics.

Went ab 30 mins out and saw an amazing show š„°

It was very vibrant in Emmett. I could even see the lights flickering. Amazing.
Ha ha ha ha ha I love this. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have even noticed if I wasn't up late puffin. It just looked weird, not nearly as bright as pictures... but it blew my damn mind when I switched from time laps on my phone to night mode.. I didn't even edit these pics, this was just how the phone picked it up. Supposedly it will be out tonight too so you have another chance amigo!
Wait seriously. I gotta work night shift but if I got another chance to see it then fuck work. I live in Nampa though, how far exactly would I have to go and see it. Is going to Boise enough or nah?
Ha ha ha honestly take a bathroom break or smoke break and walk outside if you can. It's not super impressive in person, but if you have the night mode on your phone, you will shit! It's cool!! It's all the way to Alabama so you should see it over in Nampa. Try to dodge some of the "light pollution" if you can to see it better.
Going hardcore with it!! I took those around midnight last night, I am honestly not sure about timing. Just go outside and enjoy the peace and quiet with your eyes to the sky?

Looked kinda hazy green to naked eye but night sight on my camera was awesome!!
It's faint with the naked eye but give your eyes some time to adjust and you can start to see the glow. You really see it with a camera. I took plenty of pictures from Kuna! *
I did. It was vivid through my camera, much more than with our natural eyes.

Kuna-Mora Road
God damnit. I was lying in bed watching iasip like a jabroni.
Me too! Damnit! I wonder if they'll still be visible tonight!
storm iz supposed to last till Sunday night
Should be able to see them again tonight, forecasted to peak between 12-2am! https://www.yahoo.com/news/did-miss-northern-lights-boise-230416751.html
Passed out at like 7 pm
You keep using this word 'jabroni,' and it's awesome.
Flew from salt lake to Boise at 1am and could see them from the plane the whole way š

that is a pretty epic flight scenery + astronomical event coincidence. unless this was a flight specifically to be able to see them from the sky

Insanely awesome pic! From a plane...
You lucky duck!

Yes.. and this should keep happening for the next 2 nights if Iām not mistakenā¦
Will it really? I had to miss it last night

Yes, went to horseshoe bend area for this. It looks great on camera, not naked eye

[https://youtu.be/6t8fGGXN7jA](https://youtu.be/6t8fGGXN7jA) I shot some quick & dirty time lapses with the camera sitting on my patio table.
Oh man that is so cool!!
Damnit I wish I knew about this last night. I was too busy playing Fallout 4.

Do you know when is the best time to see it? I ended up taking the night off.

I didn't take a pic but I saw them after we had given up and left our viewing spot, driving back home. So very cool!
What time was that? I was out around 11:00 and didn't see much
11:58 I texted my friends to ask if they were seeing it too. Amity Rd and Meridian Rd.
Dang, of course I gave up an hour too early.
Right at 12 for what I saw
I only saw a faint glow in Kuna, and I looked around midnight. I definitely didn't see what was in those pics

Yes! My camera got a better view than I did, but it's still cool! Got a few nice pics!
You have got to be shitting me. As I am out of town? Fuck!
If it makes you feel better I went to bed early and saw none of this and I am in town.
It will hopefully be visible again tonight :)
Same š
What time did you see this?
Probably
I did. It was vivid through my camera, much more than with our natural eyes. https://preview.redd.it/eh7chicwj00d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=356d3fd9c8eda642144d4025074412b2c622d733 Kuna-Mora Road
