More aurora happening right now.

[BPO]

Well, that's what my all-sky camera reckons. Anything visible to you guys?

[Forgey]

The only thing visible here is the clouds :(

[BPO]

It looks to have been a very fleeting event. Just a faint reddish curtain low on the southern horizon, exactly like last week, but it's already fading out. Hopefully it will return.

[BPO]

It's really going off now! Great to see, but I hope I'm not the only one seeing it!

It's nice and clear here NW Tas I can't see any just about to get the scope out , might be better with dark adapted eyes later on I hope

[acropolite]

Nothing visible in Lonny ATM, I'll keep an eye out.

[jjjnettie]

I need photos!!!!!! Good luck. :D

[BPO]

Unfortunately it faded out here around 40 minutes ago. (Approx 22:50 NZDT.)

[jjjnettie]

Should be more happening though, judging by the Helios page. :D

Sorry, as Cheryl said on the phone, I was driving at the time.

Home now and keeping an eye on the south. The Helios is looking good right now :thumbsup:

Stuck at work at the moment :( with luck It might be happening when I knock off in about an Hr and a half.:rolleyes:

[Nico13]

Now I've seen everything:rofl::rofl::rofl:
Better invite him to your next star party, :question: I think :screwy:

[mishku]

Oh Ken, no T.Chase required when Jen and I are in Snake Valley!!

Go on, Nettie, show him how to fix up chemtrails with vinegar!!

[omegacrux]

Been outside with the scope for a couple of hours now seeing is good no Aurora

[jjjnettie]

I couldn't find the original video, but this one is pretty good too.
soak a blanket in vinegar, put it in the back of your car, and drive at the "chemtrails" as fast as you can. :eyepop: :screwy:

[Nico13]

Well if you're not seeing it I guess we're not going to

[Nico13]

That sounds a bit tricky I think I'll wait on you guys to show me how its done:P

[jjjnettie]

Sorry forgot to post the link. It's those chemtrails playing havoc with my memory.

The Helios was looking good too.

[acropolite]

I had a peek outside at various times through the night, saw nothing although the transparency was crap FT have started regen burns.
