If you're in north scotland with clear skies then go outside, find a dark spot and look north. Northern lights display tonight NOW!

I'm too far south and too cloudy but some good pictures coming in!

Chuffing cloud here, but heading out as soon as mrs_oab is home and I can head up the fields behind the house.

Saw them in Macclesfield about 15 years ago, didn't know what they where thought they were a light show from Tatton Park until it came in the radio the next morning.

Saves me a trip to the artic

Visible in Wester Ross at about 3:30am. Not a particularly spectacular display here, but it's there.
