The Northern Lights Were Visible In Northern Colorado This Week

I am SO bummed I missed this.

From outtherecolorado.com:

Believe it or not, some Coloradans were lucky enough to spot the northern lights earlier this week in Colorado (video of that below). If you missed it, don't worry – there's good news, too. More opportunities to spot the night sky under similar spectacular conditions may be likely during upcoming months.
Two huge solar flares burst from the sun on Monday, unleashing what is known as a 'Cannibal' coronal mass ejection (CME). The event sent a storm of charged particles to the earth, creating an aurora borealis that was visible from some areas in northeastern Colorado on Wednesday, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 
The video below shows footage of the Northern Lights captured by Colorado photographer, Erin Moe. 

How awesome is that?! You can read the full article, here.
