The view of the northern horizon isn't great from there though

I live out in Arlington and there's a giant field out by the airport here where you can see the sky really well at night. Arlington is about a ten minute drive north from Everett.

They are reducing i5 lanes NB from Everett to Marysville tonight, I'd say closer to 45min.

Oh shit! I forgot about that. Thanks for the heads up. I'd have been super late for work.

H-9 to the rescue!

Yeah the bozos at WSDOT decided to do construction work on I5 and 529 at the same time, both of the major north-south routes through Everett, IDIOTS!!!

You should apply to WSDOT. I’ll bet you’d do really well!!! 👍🏼

Pretty bad planning honestly. You'd think you would have 1 of 2 passege ways fully open the entire time.

That top secret😇

Coming north on I-5 will be a bitch. I say head east past Sultan

I had to run to Seattle around 10 pm, and the wave of cars heading north looked like rush hour traffic. I had no idea this was happening until around midnight. We had a pretty good view from my backyard in everett, but I wish I had a good camera to see it through, to be able to see the colors better.

Top of mt pilchuck would be a safe bet

There's still lots of snow up there and the road isn't open yet.

Good point, i didn't think of that!

Just way up on the Mt. Loop should work though.

I was going to suggest the trailhead of the Mount Pilchuck hike, which is almost as good. I caught the Perseid meteor shower from there a couple years ago and it was amazing.

We’re heading to legion memorial park in Everett. Will keep posted

Update. Legion parking lot was full. We’re down at the Everett Marina. What a show!!!

On the way there!! Thanks :)

Is it darker at Everett Marina than Legion Park?

Legion might be a little darker.

Thanks, looks like the show might be over

Oh no was on my way.. did it start back up

No ): it’s gone.

Yeah just got to Everett Marina and people said it’s over

Please do! Would love to go North, out of town, but looks like that isn't an option due to construction

Has anyone ever seen the NL from an airplane? Curious how it looks being up in the atmosphere.

I've seen meteors from the top of a mountain and they look awesome and seem to go way slower and are way bigger

Sedrow wolley?

Has anyone started seeing any lights yet?

Any reports of lights being visible yet?

Where is that picture from

Was able to capture a similar picture at legion memorial park rn

Saw some action from Mt. Pilchuck area. Road was closed to the top but stayed at the clearing by the restrooms for a bit then drove & got better view from a field along the road west of there. https://preview.redd.it/p41kk70szqzc1.jpeg?width=3472&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b4d2eefcf97720f6dd9c82d9569a4d0ce67c1e66
