Northern Lights again Saturday night: Where to see in the DMV

[elleng]

(that's District/Maryland/Virginia)

'In the D.C. area, travel west of the city toward the I-81 corridor. The mountains of West Virginia and western Maryland will have the best spots away from urban light pollution. Clouds may hold through midnight in these areas, but clearing is expected before sunrise Sunday.'

1. DMV means Department of Motor Vehicles in my world, so I was wondering

how all those people working in their windowless offices could see them at all...

Sorry.

2. You are definitely NOT the only one!!!

I live in M, used to live in D, and didn't see 'lights' last night.

3. Auroras make surprise pre-dawn display in D.C. area after lighting up mountains

It was too cloudy when I looked but it's great seeing these photos from the wee hours of the morning.
