Unfortunately, auroras do not appear in Italy, or at least they are very rare; I have never seen one myself.
David, thank you for the video you shared and for mentioning the detected magnetic signal. Regarding this, I would like to ask for some additional information: Have you also observed a Solar Flare Effect (SFE)? If possible, could you please share a graph showing how one component of the geomagnetic field (e.g., the total field component) evolved over the course of a few days, starting shortly before the SFE? A graph like that would be very interesting, as it would allow us to distinguish between the effect (SFE) of the increased solar X-ray and UV emission and the effect (auroras) caused by the particle radiation.
Thank you very much
Giovanni
