Photographer Tom St. John shared his views of the northern lights early Monday morning around 12:30 a.m. from Edmonds. The northern lights, or aurora borealis, occur when solar winds create disturbances in the magnetosphere. This post from Earthsky called it a surprise geomagnetic storm, “with perhaps more geomagnetic storming to come.”





Amazing photos!!!!!
Thanks for recording this amazing phenomena.
WOW! Thanks for sharing!
Amazingly clear photo. Thanks!
Thank you for being awake and sharing what you saw!
To think that someone stays up all night, just so the rest of us can enjoy such a marvelous photo.
Thank you, Tom.
