Aurora Alert now!

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

if you have clear dark skies looking to the north, go outside now! Even reportedlyvisible from some parts of southern England.

Is anyone going aurora hunting tonight?

Might have a look. I've had an Amber alert already, and at least it's clear here for once. Most of the other times it's been cloudy and rainy.

That's what I am thinking too, iv missed every other time. It's clear and cloudy but better than any other time weather wise so might have a wee drive to a quiet dark spot. West Scotland so not sure if we will get it x

Cloudy in my part of Yorkshire. Think we are too far south too this time.

There looks to be another red alert going on just now so maybe worthwhile keeping an eye out for later x

Thank you for the heads up!

Just waiting for darkness

I've just had an alert - thinking of heading out when it's dark.

Go away cloud!

Yea the cloud is putting me off, I drove around for two hours the other night so don't fancy going out tonight if it's so cloudy

Pissing it down here in the East Midlands 😡😤
It always seems to be raining here when there is an alert.

Shetland and Icelandic webcams - hopefully they have a higher chance of seeing something, which is more than what I'm going to get here in Leicester!

It looks as though it's quite incredible, even in the south for those who can get a glimpse.

Too cloudy here 😢

Keep looking between the clouds.

A good glimpse of the moon and Venus 😂 the wind is freezing, if the clouds would bugger off it would help

Pouring with rain here. Hope others have better luck.

Wish I paid attention an hour ago!

Oh I think I got a hint!

We have sparkly green flashes, is that it? Or do I need to worry as per Day of the Triffids? It's west-ish not directly north, but there is definitely something unusual going on (Surrey)

You did! How beautiful!

Its sounds like you've seen it!

It seems to be stronger now, not visible to naked eye but getting these on night mode

Purple. Very nice!
