Anyone up currently? I think there’s a faint NLC extending from NE to ENE. Hard to tell though.

i didnt stay up/go out last night, the daisy chart didnt have any promising signs.

The daisy chart for the 4th is interesting, it clearly illustrates the great display we caught, but at around 5 o'clock  . On the 4th they first came into view around 10.50pm and lasted where i was until midnight. They probably were on view most of the night judging by photos..

But if the 11pm viewing is at 5 o'clock on the daisy , instead of 6, does that suggest what we are likely to see is at ten o'clock on the 2 day old daisy when its released in the evening instead of 11?
@Arnie Pie you have made reference to this, is this what you were talking about?

I remember a good show last year. Made it look like it was dawn they were that bright. I remember them easing and it going briefly darker again before proper dawn hit.

Looks like its going to stay clear imby

With the showing to our near East in Europe I`m hoping for a 2nd half showing.... when Nautical twilight begins to come in

(2.45-onwards)

I`m loving the way Dyslexia, in my aging brain, has come to fruition with these pesky NCL`s

Latest Aim seems to be being eaten by something (high sunspot activity in my opinion)

However there was a clump floating around the 10 o`clock point that is roughly in the 3 day transit area

Very hit and miss......but a chance providing clear skies

I'm not really expecting the eye popping bright displays that we`ve been lucky enough to observe over the last 3 years

Due to the relationship between the Solar maximums and minimums.....Sadly we are heading away from a Solar minimum which is favourable for bright displays
