I sent an email to a friend also an amateur astronomer in my hometown yesterday, discovered that he was not at home, but at the Aurora village, in a place called Yellowknife (Lat 62N) in the Northwest Territory of Canada. Seemingly it's -30 C there today and "due to drop away tonight while we are observing" Sent me a beauty of what he called a "raw" image from last night. Can imagine the view when the Solar wind stream hits Earth on Feb 1st-2nd, Was in northern Canada myself in 2003, seen some amazing displays
