Driggs ID 10:45-12:15 iPhone 16 Possible appearance of STEVE. White purple Arc beginning in the Western sky and extending all the way to the Eastern horizon. Pretty amazing display. Also caught the aurora over the Tetons! Display was still going at 12:15 however moonrise was starting to interfere.
Got to see STEVE for a few minutes too around 10:20pm PST. Camera setting were approximately iso800, f/4, and 10-second shutter speed. Sony a6400 and Viltrox 9mm f/2.8.
These were taken from my backyard in northern California from near Sacramento at 10pm PST (looking north). KP is currently at 6.
