There is a big glop of matter coming at us from the sun right now, Impact is expected on June 24th at 0700 UT plus or minus 7 hours. When it gets here we will be treated to a show of shows. Even with the sky staying blue all night long, if there are no clouds there will be a show. Just think, for a few of us it will the first time in years that we will be able to really see what is going on. ID: 1120088 ·

If you are up after sun-down, and you donâ€™t live too far north, you may get a good show. People who live as far north as I do must put up with the sky staying blue all night long, making it harder to see the aurora in the summer time. ID: 1124768 ·

Last modified: 23 Jul 2011, 16:00:30 UTC I just figured it out Rob; I see that in Britain you are below 60 degrees north latitude. With the off set in here in the position of the north magnetic pole to the west of the geographical North Pole it means you are missing out on Aurora that we can get here. This is even though you seem to be a bit north of our latitude. It looks like the magnetic pole is progressing more to the northwest as time goes on. Like anything to do with geophysics, no one knows what will happen next. Still for now if there are very strong displays you will get Aurora. I am sure you were just hanging on in anticipation waiting for this little tomb about the wonders of the planet we live on from me. ID: 1130998 ·
