Marty Eisses, an NIU alum and former WGN-TV weather office intern and now a member of the weather observation team at Midway Airport, snapped these shots of Sunday night's aurora display from the catwalk at Midway's control tower. Marty, who, like so many in the area, had never witnessed a northern lights diplay before this and was impressed at the strength of the aurora, in even in the midst of city lights. Great shots Marty!
