      NTGland can be seen on there. South of Rochester. It's amazing how easy every city can be identified from a night time light map in the eastern Great Lakes region.

        @travisdh1 It's so easy to see Cleveland, Akron, Canton in a row there with the lights.

        Didn't we have another large one around 2009 sometime? Not quite as large an area as 2003.

        Not sure, I was living in NYC in most of 2009 and Dallas at the end of it.

          So many places that I have lived and worked are in that photo. My family is from Canton, I grew up near Buffalo, moved to Flint as a teenager, to Rochester in my 20s, Ithaca soon thereafter, then Pittsburgh, then some stuff off of the photo, then to Geneseo...

                Yep. I live in the closest small light source north. Got 10M/1M at home, which still drives me nuts. The One Community fiber loop is on the poles in my front yard. Yet the best internet connection available in the area is 50M/5M.

                  I get that and it stinks. Verizon ran Fios Fiber through my neighborhood (literally the poles in my backyard) to interconnect 2 parts of the local town. But because my neighborrhood wasn't technically part of the town no franchise agreement and therefore stuck with cable and their crappy service and lines. Glad i moved

                    Haha that's a cool idea.
                    Here's my state. And no it's not during a blackout, we're just one giant dark zone 😉

                        We should keep this up. Post your state's night picture and others can try to guess the state.
