My latest post has disappeared again due to over editing!! What a nuisance. What I said was that thanks to Grant I think this white arc was a STEVE. I made the point that the red glow in the east to the right of the arc was mirrored in the west by a similar red glow (an aurora?). Also I have calculated that the arc reached a maximum of 60 degrees altitude due north rather than 70 degrees. Further, I would be interested to know if anyone else has seen the fast moving “curtains” travelling along the arc from east to west. They can be best described as bands which were perpendicular to the direction of the arc.
