Default It's here again - that orange glow

Hello Graham
Yes, I recall (just about|) seeing green flashes (and blue ones) around
closing time at Sennen Old Success some years ago.
Do you think it's the local atmosphere?

Hi Peter - there seem to be quite a few people from Sennen following
USW!

I always assumed it was the very clean air that made it visible, and
looking west from Sennen there isn't much to cause pollution.

However, layers of undisturbed warm/cold air over the sea surface at
night might play a part as well.

All the best
Graham
