The Aurora from UK 10 May 2024

From my All Sky Camera

A fabulous aurora display occurred over the UK on the late evening of Friday 10th May and into the morning of 11th May.  We do get Aurora in the UK but this one was the best for many years.  This is because the UK is so cloudy and normally when there is a good show due to solar maximum or a coronal ejection you may be sure that it coincides with very cloudy and wet weather in the UK.  Miraculously on this occasion we were treated to a fabulous display at the end of a very clear week.
