The Red Corona
CrossIron Mills Calgary Alberta November 11, 2025 at 0830 MDT
The Remembrance Day Storm of 2025 will go down as one of the most unique geomagnetic storms for its ferocity without knocking out major power systems.

Rarely does the the aurora explode this fast, the peak of the substorm lasted all of 10 minutes.... it leaves one gob smacked, and one questions "What is Reality"?

Gentle substorms from a CIR impact, sweeps the aurora borealis into the mid latitude skies in Southern Alberta.

This strange pulsating Aurora(Proton?) cigar, pulsated for 40 min before dissipating. #Protonaurora #Proton #Aurora #Auroraborealis #northernlights

One of the prettiest aurora's that I have witnessed, but that may have to do with the awesome glass like pond for reflection shots . #Aurora #Auroraborealis #northernlights

"Like I SAID"
Northeast of Calgary 20250418T0520Z
At the end of the first substorm a SAID aka STEVE formed and stayed visible for about 30-40 minutes. It was difficult to make out with the eye, so I set my camera's to ISO 5000, F2.8, 13-15 seconds. There was no Picket Fence that I could see.

Coronal hole streams seem to affect the aurora and we see different structures that we see in a CME geomagnetic storm. This is the first major substorm of the morning, it lasted a whopping 60 minutes!

The origin of pulsating auroras (PsAs) remains an unresolved problem in the field of aurora physics, and it' unusual to see it during the enhancement phase of the aurora, it is typically confined to the recovery phase.
