[McKenzie]

Great in East Lothian

East Tyrone, about half an hour ago. This doesn't do it justice.

Third probable last time I'll be out tonight, was trying my best to dodge clouds using satellite maps and timing it perfectly!

I could see this with the naked eye (somewhat) this time, you could definitely tell from the glow in the sky but actual columns was far and few between regarding visibility.

Cumbria by day, looking South West:






Cumbria by night, looking North North East. Lady Ff's phone near the car. The half moon was pretty red setting in the SW at the time too.

The AB was so clear at 5:30 I actually dared to waken Lady FB (think of tigress with thorns in both feet). She actually thanked me! Also saved me a fortune as herself has long wanted to go to Iceland to see it…

SOL are you a ham? Luckily the impacts from the storm didn’t hit to bad, but it’s only now hitting Earth, the K index is currently at 3. So only now starting to disrupt HF radio frequencies. Nothing seen last night to cloudy.

Here a pic I took back in May when it was visual with the naked eye.

still a few good spikes coming in, may get a bit showing tonight.

sorry guys, the forecast is poor for anymore aurora tongiht. unless a second wave hits its over for a while.

 

[Sol]

Was unusually quiet for a few weeks but we've just had another half decent X-flare, not really earth directed but it might still give a little show.

Hopefully this region continues to produce as it rotates more into earths view.

Be careful what you wish for...

While we are waiting, the significance of the 'stick man on stone' might be worthy of consideration:
