Auroras isle of man - Google Search

you know ive seen many a yellow red purply sky and not even realised it was an aurora, never dawned on me, but some of those are belters from the west coast here, got to see me some of those green skies.

Wish I could see one of those skies again, to be quit honest..only ever have witnessed (and behold) Aurora Borealis(for those not in the know) when I was in Norway a few years ago.For the better ? Probably not, but it still was a beautiful sight.

people were seeing them as far south as Essex.

aye, they were, judging by all those pics, you would think its common place, but far from it really, ive never seen a green sky, alot of those pic's are from the last week.
