Did you see Steve in the sky this weekend?

This is a new one to me - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67331747

But given I'm in the wrong part of the country and it's been thick cloud and rain all weekend, there would have been no chance here in Lancashire. Did any of you get to see it?

Hope you all enjoyed my little light show.

I didn't see anything... because I didn't bother to look...

 

Pretty much ignore the "Oooooh, you might be able to see the Northern Lights tonight" because I live quite far down south (plus lots of light pollution around where I live).

 

In my ignorance I've always thought it was for those lucky (?) enough to live in the Northern Isles of Scotland and sometimes those in the far North of England might even catch a glimpse (on the rare occasions when it isn't cloudy/raining).

 

But then I see on the news about people in Essex and even Cornwall seeing them!

@ZeroHour has some very nice pics of the aurora from his home in Shetland!
