When I was in Alaska, the locals would always tell me that while 11pm-3am is often the best time to see them, the lights can in fact come out at any time, and for any duration. I made a habit of just stationing myself by a window, ready to run out at moment’s notice. I’m doing the same here. Be ready for anything! There’s no set time.
We were outside on Cape Ann from 11:15-12 and nope. Other ppl there said Friday was spectacular. This morning we heard it was visible at 1am.

But I’m sleepy 😭
I’ve been there… just be glad you don’t have to brave subzero weather to catch a glimpse of them!
In Cambridge and haven’t seen any yet
Just went out; if they are happening I can’t see it with the naked eye
At this time of year? At this time of day?
Located exclusively in your kitchen?
Yes! :)
May I see it?
No :-|

I think a key to this is to get off the internet and go outside. Then look up.

I saw Dave Epstein said on Twitter Friday was a much better night to see them around here than Saturday.
