Anyone watching for Northern Lights tonight?

[GlueNoGlue]

It’s supposed to be a perfect night to see them in the U.K. the combination of the solar flare and the clear sky means they’re potentially visible from anywhere in the U.K. Just wondering if I’m the only one staring out the window hoping to see something!

Look north according to dc ( who has app watching).

Spotted on phone camera

@Namechange3333777 where are you?

Just now, very faint.

On the North Coast of Cornwall here, both photos are the same settings but one is pointing north & the other south. I cannot see these colours with the naked eye! To the north is definitely lighter & greener to my eyes but nothing like this. Most of the photos you'll see are from the advantage of technology.

It's my dream to actually properly see them

This is London! (I did have to walk somewhere dark!)

Coventry, West Midlands. Taken from my back garden in a built-up area!

I’m just south of Leeds.

Woo! Lincolnshire.

Some more

We have looked and it's a bit brighter than usual but that's it. South coast though so probably not the best place to see it.

Getting brighter

West London

They’re here!

Worcestershire...

Surprisingly good for being so near London! It's changed a lot in the last hour

Sorry that was a terrible one

They’re visible in the North west too!

Off outside to look as soon as ds stops feeding!

I’ve been going out onto the park on my street every 20 mins for the last hour, in my jammies, like a total eejit. Too much light pollution. I think I got a shimmer of green but might try again later

(also my DS was up three times last night so I am knackered and should be asleep but too excited for the lights. Never seen them. Don’t want to miss my chance!)

I can see them only through my phone. I'm down south on the coast facing Nirth

Try with your phone camera!

I can see them with the naked eye. Camera does show them up more though.

usually when you see an amazing sky and take a picture, it never does it justice, so this is a welcome aspect.

We have just arrived home (Cumbria) and can see some glowing with the naked eye. DH and DS are in the garden with cameras at the moment but I have had a crazily busy day so I'll wait to see them in the morning - I'm off to bed! Our local Facebook groups are all filling up with photos now and it looks like lots of people are getting good ones.

I'm in the central belt in Scotland.
