Yeah, I knew I should have poked my head outside around midnight last
night but the aurora sites, solar wind speeds and magnetic flux
levels didn't look that promising. So I didn't, oh and it was only a
degree or so above freezing as well.

It was clear here in Sunderland, but I couldn't report anything that looked
like the Northern Lights when I took a look outside... but then again, as
already mentioned in a previous posting, we do have quite a bit of light
pollution to contend with in these parts.

It's supposed to be even 'better' tonight (that's if the clouds clears, of
course!).

Regards... David Allan.
