Some minutes ago I came back from a successful NLC-observation.
NLC´s appeared at 19:50 UT in bright dawn and disappeared at 20:40 UT.
Forms: I, IIa,b, III
Brightness: 2-3
Azimuth: 336° - 000 - 064°

The weather conditions were quit good.

I wish you good observing conditions for this night!

I can see NLC through gaps in the cloud, someone on another website mentioned he was seeing a nice display in Epsom

After a beautiful Sarichev peak volcanic sunset I saw pale bluish lines at 19:20 UT. I couldn't decide it was sulphur-dioxid or nlc. But later the lines were stronger and brighter. It was the best nlc from Hungary in this season. There were amazing waves and lines about 20 degrees altitude by NNE-NW. The display lasted about one hour.

Very bright NLC was in Hungary, I have lots of pictures, now I have to share one with the ISS flying above the NLC.
