Possible Aurora Tomorrow night was created by galwayskywatchers
An M4-class solar flare erupted near sunspot 672 on Sept 12th, and the blast hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME, movie) toward Earth. The incoming cloud could spark a strong geomagnetic storm when it arrives on Sept. 14th. Sky watchers everywhere should be alert for auroras after nightfall tomorrow.

Perhap because light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Nothing here either (Citywest, Dublin)..... Unless you count the amazing orange-grey lights to the North. Oh, hang on, that's Tallaght.
Everyone in Ireland buys Meade, and they all buy them from Lidl.

Nothing from Tullamore either, and it was a surprisingly clear and starry night too!
