NOAA forecasts high auroral activity at the moment:

Fingers crossed for some more bright Perseids tonight against an auroral background.

While testing my new all sky camera last night, some nice displays on the overnight time lapse (sadly not colour though)

Hi Robin,

Nice sharp images with a good limiting mag. I had variable cloud cover last night, but during the clearer intervals my Leeds_N caught faint examples of your bright auroral rays through the Plough.

Cheers,

Alex.

Hi Alex,

This camera is running with 10 sec exposures but building it has piqued my interest in perhaps building a GMN meteor camera so I might be in touch 🙂

Cheers
Robin
