Vincent, this might be a faint SAR arc. Sorry I didn't have time to do a pano of the entire arc. After I finished a timelapse of the substorm that started at 8:18PM EDT, I saw your post and swung my camera up and to the west. Taken at 9:50PM EDT in Western Mass.

Very brief (less than 10 mins) and diffuse #aurora substorm at 10:25PM EDT, 7/12/25 in Goshen, MA. The moon rose about 24 mins before this but was not high enough yet to wash it out.

Very brief appearance of the aurora at 1:07AM EDT, June 2 in Western Mass. It lasted less than five minutes but was enough of a tease to keep me searching in vain the rest of the night.

Amazing #aurora display in Western Mass at 10:17PM. The storm was so strong that the pillars were visible to the naked eye.

Not sure of your location, but there's a Kp4 storm out there right now and it looks good on NEOC Starcam. We're socked in with clouds in Western MA. πŸ™

Glendale App, the world's most accurate aurora app. Not in any app store. Glendale App is the world's most accurate aurora app.

There is an amazing web app, called Glendale at aurora-alerts.uk, that alerts you to possible substorms.

The sun has been quiet the past couple of months and auroras have been hard to find, especially with the clouds we have had in New England this winter. Last night, we had a brief and faint #aurora substorm in Goshen, MA around 11:45PM.
