Hi Bill,

huge display above Northern Germany. AZI at least 330-045. Height is rising.

Hi Olaf,

Yes it turned out to be a really nice display. It didn't get too high in sky from here but it showed some interesting characteristics.
Quite rapid movement from east to west. I'll get the video from my cctv camera onto youtube at some point today.

Cheers,
Bill.

Hi,

Here's the video from last night.
The NLC is really moving!, a very strong easterly flow, must have been a fast wind speed at altitude last night.

Smokin'

It's a bit rough and ready but the eastward component is around 100m/s (that's 360kph/225mph)!
However its +/- by quite a bit, but it's in that region.
