Could not see them with the naked eye, but I was so excited to finally see them for the first time, even if I had to use a longer exposure on my phone to do it!
My friend posted pictures from Glenburn, ME, which is just north and west of Bangor. I was working, and it was overcast in Orono, so I didn't see anything. Hopeful for tonight!!
It wasn't visible to the naked eye here (at least with my eyes ), but I did some baseline tests both before and after peak just to make sure I wasn't imagining things. During the height of it all, I was able to see waves of pink rippling around the tree line. I had to boost the exposure and saturate a bit to make it show.

Leebee…here in Massachusetts they showed up pretty much right after it got dark. I was shocked it was so early in the night. Then they came again around 10:30pm. So maybe you won’t have to stay up too late to see them.

Unfortunately, the chances look a lot smaller tonight. This was posted by a meteorologist in Rochester, NY:
"Will you be able to see the aurora again tonight? Probably not, unfortunately. Our "Severe" solar storm has wound down dramatically. There will likely be some lingering "Minor to Moderate" storming at times tonight, but this will limit visibility to northern latitudes only (and likely only those with a camera).
Don't worry, something tells me this won't be the last time you have a chance like last night. It wouldn't shock me if the Sun still has more tricks up its sleeve during this solar cycle."
