No, but have been looking whenever possible since May 20! Missed out on the 5-6 June display imaged by Dave Briggs at Clanfield - although we're only a few miles away, on the Sussex coast it was cloudy! Often seems to be the problem with the South Downs microclimate - the 'hills' can be clear, and the coastal strip cloudy,and vice versa! Hoping for a clearance in the claggy weather over the weekend....

Yes. Just checked my log book which told me that I have seen 12 nights of NLCs this season so far of which 9 were Veil and the latest 3 being complex displays. During the incredible 2006 season I documented almost 30 nights of NLCs so I am expecting to get a similar count or higher this year clear skies permitting. Hi Neill - good to have you on here  |

Last night, 08-09, finally brought clear conditions with NLC present from 0008-0230UT. A rather weak and faint display but something at least! Hope there's better to come... Tom |

I'm hoping tonight will provide the first positive sighting of this years season... Few thunderstorms over Wales close by that I can see the tops of, but apart from a little sky haze it's looking promising |

Just nabbed my first of the season from deepest Sussex! Fairly strong type II-III, initially suspected 2140 UT, confirmed minutes late in 10x50s, and becoming strongly visible for a time round 2200 before eventually succumbing to the murk (as did Venus!) around 2225 UT. Glad to have got off the mark, with hospitalisation a fortnight away...

Too much cloud up here last night - pity, sounds and looks like a great display. Clearing up here at the moment so here's hoping.
