NLC Alert and Report! was created by Frank Ryan
Last year a few of us on these boards had a
NLC text thing going on in that when we spotted some
we would send a message to alert each other...
it worked a treat!

Following on from that I've created a Facebook page
to help people keep up to date with the sightings.

it's
NLC Alert & Report (NLCAR)
www.facebook.com/pages/NLC-Alert-Report/123990600963969

So if your into NLC's then join up and help heep a lookout!

Yea, Frank and I saw some very faint looking ones right on the Northwestern horizon last night, so keep an eye out.
The NLC season might start with a blast tonight!!

Good idea Frank here is another being done for BBC Radio 4's 'So You Want to be a Scientist?' Over the coming months they will be relating observations of noctilucent clouds to VHF radar measurements of the mesosphere. www.bath.ac.uk/news/2010/04/28/noctilucent/
