Finally the Northern Lights

Postby JSpahn » Sat Feb 16, 2008 9:37 pm

 :o Wow , I was busy tweaking my sim for use with my dual monitors and I was blessed with this pleasant surprise. When they appeared it actually took my breath away & I realized I need to goto Alaska someday soon(in real life) ;D

If you are quick do real world weather and set the time to dusk, lets see if you can find them 8-)

I have never seen one of those in FS. I am hoping to see them as soon as I get my computer fixed again.



Awesome display. ;)
