pretty paint job!
ORIGINAL CAPTION: Auroras are really fickle most times. One can see a truly lame faint arc and assume it will stay that way all night. They'd probably find they were wrong if they made a night of it and watched. Most don't want to do that. So most miss the good shows. It can straight up go from faint hard to see like that, to amazing bright pillars in a couple minutes, stay amazing for 10 minutes, then fly right back to the lame faint green arc again in a couple more. I don't even like to call people usually, as they will head out and see it too late. They will then get sick of waiting for a good show to come back and go home, only to miss the next outburst. This night had 2 great outbursts. One about 11:15 and the other 11:40. Like 10 minutes long each basically. (Extreme Instability)

'Zombie Car' abandoned in China street,
overgrown with ivy
CFP
A parked car in Huayang village, in China's Sichuan province, was left for so long that thorny vines and ivy grew up all around it.

BEIJING – Residents on a street in China finally said good riddance Friday to a car, almost completely engulfed by foliage, which has become a social media sensation since it was abandoned a year ago.
The old, blue-colored van was dubbed ‘Zombie Car’ by social media users after it was reportedly left by its owner in a parking space on Peace Road in Huayang village, Sichuan province sometime in 2012.

In China, abandoned cars are known colloquially as jiangshi che, or zombie cars.
In China, abandoned cars are known colloquially as “jiangshiche,” or “zombie cars.” But the Huayang example, hidden almost completely by leaves, quickly became the most famous zombie car in China, with pictures circulated on social media.
Police tried to remove the vines, but they were so thick and thorny that it was decided the vehicle should be towed away with the green foliage in place – a bizarre sight for other drivers.

Officials used the license plate to identify the original owner, Wang Ping. He told police he had sold the vehicle three years ago but couldn’t remember anything about the buyer.
“This is definitely an authentic creepy zombie car… why is it so scary??!!” wrote one user on China’s twitter-like service, Weibo, “Maybe I’ve just watched too many zombie movies.”
CFP
The vehicle was eventually towed away by police.
“This zombie car is so cool, we cannot even recognize it as a car,” gushed another commenter, “I thought it was a wall covered with vines!!”
