[Meatloaf] Strong solar storm

[Jeff Hayas]

Paul --

Very Cool -- Thanks!
A couple of Q's:
- What is the time-range of the photos?
- Location?

I could not get out until 9:30pm, and by then I saw nada, except a faint
white glow, like a distant town.
The sky was starting to get misty-cloudy by then which obscured much of the
West and Northern sky.  Drat!
