Aurora Alert NOW! 23 December
Kp has hit 6 and the IPS has issued an aurora alert. However Bz
remains positive but there have been reports of unaided eye aurora
from Tasmanian and some NZ observers.
Worth having a look.
As always look to the south for shifting red/green glows, recently beams have been reported too. As usual, dark sky sites will have the best chance of seeing anything, and always allow around 5 minutes for your eyes to become dark adapted.
The all sky aurora camera in Southern Tasmania at Cressy may be of help in monitoring for aurorahttp://www.ips.gov.au/Geophysical/4/2
