Been watching it on and off from Balerno (nr Edinburgh) all night. Can't remember a better show this
far South. Whole sky covered at times. Blues / greens mostly but some large red areas showing up
too. Will we get more tomorrow???

79.84% of all statistics are made up on the spot. The other 42% are made up later on. In Warwick -
looking at flat fields and that includes the castle.

Anyone capturing some images for showing on the web ??
Pouring with rain on the south coast, not that there would be much chance of seeing anything so
spectacular down here.

I got a fantastic view from just north of Stirling. I was right underneath it with lights shooting
over my head!

We had good views from Dunning too!

Not recently - I just subscribed to dcs.lancs.ac.ukaurorawatchOpen ↗ which I presume is
a different service as it comes from the right side of the Pennines.
Ignoring the slur on Yorkshire... it's appears to be the same service. Same pages etc. Emails from
them are down too according to a note on the web site.

I couldn't believe this weather report until I spotted it was Thursday you were speaking about. Anne
and I went to the mountain centre for a cuppa in the afternoon and the weather was very miserable. I
knew Paul was out doing his October project theme and was visting Henrhyd Falls near Coelbren. On
out way home I called in to the little car park above the falls and went down the path to meet up
with him. Paul was a dark figure (very wet) ascending the steep path from the river in what was by
now a dark dismal ravine.
I'll let Paul tell you about his project (Thursday).
Oh yes I said above that I couldn't believe the weather report - that's because I'm reading it today
- Friday :-)

Clear skies in Swansea, but no aurora to be seen.
Do you need really dark skies to see one?

I suppose if it's no brighter than an average star then yes.

Fran If you need my email address please ask.
There's a note on their website explaining that a technical glitch is preventing emails being sent.

Yes and you won't find dark enough ones in Swansea. Top of a mountain with no major conrubation
closer than 30 miles tou your north would be ideal. Best place in south Wales would be St Davids
head I imagine....

Interesting ... although trying to catch an event like that must be some task with camera settings.
Thanks anyway.
