You can also check the Space Weather Prediction Center to see what you can expect in your area.
21How do i check my specific area on this site?
10If you scroll down on the site you'll see a map of the globe as viewed from space towards the North Pole titled The Auroras. If you play the video it'll show the predicted areas that have a chance to see them. Looking at it earlier it looked like if you aren't in Canada it's a pretty low chance.

There's not much info, what exactly can we see?
16aurorae
13Some nice colors in the sky If you’re north enough. Sadly I doubt this will be as strong as the aurora back in May, but maybe one day well get them down in Atlanta again

This would be awsome if I wernt under a permanent and thick grey cloud this year
14For Europeans, late Monday morning into Tuesday
That's going to be a big ask, but I missed them last time, so I'll have to at least try!
13Just remember that you might not see anything with the naked eye, but a camera will pick up the colour. Last time, I was able to get out, and once my eyes were used to the dark, I could see faint grey lines and waves in the sky :)
7Yeah, thanks! I actually remember the advice from last time, I had managed to stay up the second night we were meant to see the lights, and I thought I might have (thought it was grey streaks like you describe), but looking through the camera it was clearly just a mixture of light pollution and clouds 😭
But forecast says clear skies Monday night, so here's hoping!

A G3?
Boring.
8Yeah IDK if people in the thread are actually familiar with the scale.
I'm fairly far north and I'm considering turning off my g3 email alerts and just leaving the bigger ones since it's generally a nothingburger.
4Even the last G4 was barely visible where I was, but I think that had more to do with light pollution more than the intensity. And the timing of it was bad too

For someone living in sweden south of stockholm this probably means nothing right? I moved here a few months ago but havent been able to see aurora. They say sometimes you can see it from here.
4Unfortunately probably not. G3 events aren't that uncommon, there's usually one every couple months. It never hurts to go look for a few minutes though. It's a pretty rough prediction, it's not set in stone. The best I've seen was a G4 and not the big G5 a few months ago.
