Just had a look outside here in Tyrrellspass - can't see any hint of an aurora Conor. Maybe you are 'just' getting it as you are that bit further North than me.
Its an amazingly clear night down here - woohay for lack of light pollution!

Absolutely nothing to be seen from Tyrrellspass or Tullamore. I have pitch dark skies for the first time in a while (clean air helps), and there is no hint of an aurora for the past half hour.
Saturn looks great though! And Jupiter is just peeping on the horizon!

No Aurora here in Naas .... not that I was expecting one this far south.
However, 2 questions regarding Aurorae ...
If you did get a period of high activity ;
1) How long would you need to keep watch before you get a glimpse of the Aurora ?
2) How long would the display last ?
