Tom St. John captured another aurora over Edmonds, Wash. — this one on Monday, Sept. 18, 2023. The northern lights were visible before the clouds came in, with a peak between 10 and 11 p.m. This clip is about 10 minutes compressed to 10 seconds. Looking north, you can see the Edmonds ferry dock and Whidbey Island in the distance.

Great video! I saw these looking northward above Whidbey Island while I was squidding from the Edmonds pier! To the naked eye they look like gray, slowly billowing curtains. I wasn’t sure it was the aurora until I saw pillars moving upward as well. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for sharing! I always miss them and rely on videos like these to see what is happening right here in Edmonds!
I was so tempted to go out and try to watch but I didn’t think it would be visible given the latitude and cloud cover! (Aurora app only put the odds at 8% chance).
Is there a good public place in the Edmonds area to try and see them from?
