Definate glow to the northern horizon between the little bits of
cloud. First aurora for years, there may have been other chances in
the last year but cloud is PITA...

Alerts from spaceweather.com and Lancs Uni Aurorawatch.

Kp about 6, which it has to be to produce a visible aurora here and
forecast to rise:
