Default Light Pillars in Minnesota


"Montblack" wrote

I've seen the local skating rink light pillars as a kid - I remember

those.
But to have the whole night sky filled with what look the Northern Lights,
along with rows upon rows of colorful light pillars, in any direction you
look - that's pretty rare ...for me anyway.


Cool! I had never heard of this type of phenomena before. I'm guessing
that it takes pretty cold, and relatively rare conditions.

In Ohio, (where I grew up) when it was snowing, the ceilings were usually
low, and the temps were usually not far below freezing. Not the right
conditions, I suppose.
