What a shame about the cloud and drizzle  :!

...and the orange glow reflected off all that cloud from the excess of street-lighting below. :/

This simulation's quite interesting:

(I'm not sure how long it'll be there for, though.)

I had a look outside from the bottom of the garden looking North but all I saw was cloud.

QuoteA large solar storm resulted in the northern lights being seen as far south as Dorset and Bournemouth on Monday night.

Typical our luck to have cloud.
