Aurora Tonight?

[Comrade Jenkens]

I've heard that there is a good chance of an aurora tonight, and much further south than usual. Anybody staying up to watch it?

As I'm in southern England the chances of seeing it are slim but hopefully i'll get lucky.

I'm located at ~50 degrees northern latitude; I wonder if they're visible from where I am?

I think at this point you can safely go to bed. The Kp index is still stubbornly low (i.e. less than 3) and it'll have to get over 5 for you to have much of a chance of seeing it. The NOAA ovation site also isn't showing much activity currently.

Are you blind now?

Where I am the index has to be 7 to be able to see it so yeah I went to bed.

LOL no, I'm not stupid.

I made a filter from one of those eclipse glasses.
