Anyone far enough north to report after the fact on the northern lights that are supposed to be widely visible tonight?

I walked out on my driveway and looked.  I am in the city so there is too much light pollution to really show it off, but the sky is bright and looking north to the horizon there is a green glow that is not coming from city lights.  I have seen the northern lights glow green before, so I know what I am looking at.  It seems obvious to me that is what it is.  But if I did not know what to look for the city light pollution would make it hard to know that anything is going on.
