[Scan-DC] Aurora NOW!!

Fri, 31 Oct 2003 07:21:01 -0500

I heard about it happening "as we speak" from Bob Ryan on NBC4.  Elizabeth
and I drove up north of Damascus arrving there between 6:45 and 7:00.  It
was well worth the drive.  Absolutely AMAZING.

We drove up to New Market, but to late to see any aurora.  Did see a
shooting star with a long tail.  Maybe space junk?
