Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) Tonight?

WEDNESDAY EVENING UPDATE: 

It's looking like we'll have another chance to see the Northern Lights tonight, as long as we have a few breaks in the clouds.  Last night's event was spectacular as evidenced by the many pictures and videos from places all over the northern half of the United States!  The aurora update from Europe this evening looks like things be promising for portions of the U.S. again tonight!
