My partner and I have been in Tas (Hobart) for the last 7 days.
Not watching any media for the week we were oblivious to the impending event!
On the best night I thought, wouldn't it be great to see an aurora while we are this far south . Again, completely oblivious to the KP index.

I had a quick look out our hotel window looking south,
around 11:30pm and even took a 20 sec exposure with my phone. Nothing.
We went to bed only to wake up to news that Tas had experienced an aurora and then seeing pics from mid NSW showing it too.

Hi Steve. I know the feeling of missing it. I woke one night and was wondering why the sky was so bright near new moon only to find out what was going on the next day. I've got my all sky cam working again now and was surprised how much activity there was on nights where there was no advertised Kp warnings.
