[TangoSixteen]

Anyone?

Im way up north tonight, but its hard to see anything!

Was it not tomorrow night that the second wave was going to hit?

 

[benneh]

Nada.

I'm really sick of living in this country sometimes. Every time an astrological event happens, like meteor showers or this, I can't see nothing because of the cloud.

The sun doesn't exist. It's all a conspiracy created by the government to make Oprah look blacker.

Browner?

I think I shall go home this weekend after all, I've seen the lights before from Stavely, but that was a long time ago.

Just been out for a drive out the back of dundee with my camera.

Absolutely nothing . Looks like its a no-go for the UK tonight.

I've seen them down near Edinburgh before (2001 or 2002).

Anyone further north than Dundee got anything?

midlands here.

Absolutely amazingly clear, haven't seen it like this in over a year. Not a cloud in the sky and if you look up it's like you are drawn up in to the sky. No lights though

Same here. The moon was bright orange for a minute earlier, but nothing more than that.

Jealous..

It didn't really happen much, we were hoping for some AU conditions during the contest on Tuesday evening but it didn't materialise.

Sunspot 1092 was pretty much a non event, it was only a C3 level.

Everytime I see your name I think of Father Jack for some reason.

From last night:

Aurora over Voss, Norway 05. August 2010

Some short timelapses recorded with Canon 40D + Sigma 30mm f1.4

Auroras so far south (60 degrees) is very rare for us, and especially in the summer!

Some cloud about last night but nothing else in the sky. Not that I expected to catch anything to be honest.

Am I right in thinking I've missed the boat for this? I thought it was tonight for some reason

It's highly unlikely that you will see anything tonight.

Cheers.. Thought I read it was mainly last night, but the neighbours just came around asking if I fancied going to try see it up the local hill.. Had to shoot their dreams down.
