Nice one @Tris - where are you roughly? Edit ha sorry, your location is in profile - that's good as you are below me as I'm Midlands
despite having worked in Shetlands & Norway I've never seen it & it's just like one of those things I'd love to see
I've read about 2am is best in UK so a few more beers and I'm off into the garden in a bit to just look.

Likely to see them during the entire weekend if you are lucky to be in an area where they can be seen...

What am I doing here?
It's been pretty impressive here for an hour or so, didn't expect to see anything this far south.
The colours show up much better in the photos using night vision than with the naked eye.
Last time they were visible here was 25 years ago and I missed them then, so it's been a bit of a wait. Another thing off the bucket list

Still waking up not dead in the morning

It's the dancing and weaving that is most impressive.

This reminds me of "Day of the Triffids" (a favorite book of my youth).
Don't look at the lights !!!!!
Cheers. Vann.

We got the Southern Lights happening here in Australia (with people seeing them as far north as Mackay in central Queensland) and where I am in southern Qld- its 100% cloud cover and rain...
(Mackay is 21.1S latitude, which in the northern hemisphere is literally in northern Africa...)
This was posted from Victoria (most of NSW and Qld are covered in cloud)

Was in Tunbridge Wells last night, so wife drove me out to Groombridge to get away from the lights a little.
Hopefully will be good tonight and I will pop up to Beachy Head area.

Don't know why but this triggered a memory
Must be Eurovision
Which puts me in mind of this.
