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

Thanks for reminding me the bins need to go out 😂

You are very welcome.

Don't forget to look at the skies...

And don't trip over.... !

Possibly a green tinge for us in the West Country, lovely clear night. Thanks very much.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 26/02/2023 22:11

Woah SoCross so happy for you!

Try with cameras, they pick it up before the human eye can.

Too cloudy in South Cumbria but my daughter is in Scotland and the sky is alive with colour

NW England. Too cloudy where I am. I have been trying to catch it in the UK for years. Well anywhere tbh. It's beautiful.

I’m in the south in an area of very low light pollution but can’t see anything Sad

PriamFarrl · 26/02/2023 22:16

I’m in the East, and in the bath! How long is this likely to go on for? Our street lights go out at 11.30.

Lovely of you to post this @OhYouBadBadKitten Saw nothing here - (Midlands.) I have looked for 15 minutes. Nothing.

Will look a bit more soon though, and will look tomorrow too. Smile

HeavenIsAHalfpipe · 26/02/2023 22:17

Where are you @SoCrossAboutThis ? Smile

Island up in the hebrides in Scotland. Been watching the past hour. Amazing!!

Wow @Stoater that's incredible!

HeadsShouldersKneesAndMyGreatAuntsWalkingStick · 26/02/2023 22:20

Just stuck my head out my bedroom window but have nothing to report apart from a now freezing bedroom and freezing scalp Grin

HeadsShouldersKneesAndMyGreatAuntsWalkingStick · 26/02/2023 22:20

@Stoater !!!!!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 26/02/2023 22:22

I'm so jealous but very happy for the aurora watchers. I've never seen a proper full on one yet.

Amazing photos!!

BIWI · 26/02/2023 22:25

Very envious!

deplorabelle · 26/02/2023 22:26

Went outside in Oxfordshire but can't really convince myself of anything. Possibly a green tinge but probably just light pollution. The stars are beautiful though

BertaHoon · 26/02/2023 22:26

OhYouBadBadKitten · 26/02/2023 22:09

Glad you are ok Berta!

Thank you.

All I can see now is my front door window flashing with the zebra (?) crossing lights outside.
Could have a Close Encounter of the 3rd Kind, and I'd be moaning about the bloody lights 🙄

OhYouBadBadKitten · 26/02/2023 22:26

As far south as Herne Bay half an hour ago.
