Also: 100 % cloud cover in basically all of Northern Europe :/ Iceland is probably the place to be for the aurora show!

Yep. It's raining pretty hard here in the North East of the UK. Not much point in going to look.

"...geomagnetic storm watch for tomorrow as the cloud could impact our planet as early as 16 UTC on 12 November"

Note to non-UK readers:

Most of the time when someone says they are in the “North East of the UK” it’s not some Scotsman up in Shetland it is an English person who is currently in the North East of England.

The North East of England is in the middle part of the UK mainland.

So .. they don't see scotland as part of the UK anyway? Why was it such an issue then that they wanted to leave? (And why were there bloody wars fought about it in the first place?)

It's raining off and on in London as well.

> could impact our planet as early as 16 UTC on 12 November

Is that 16:00 or 00:16?

Bad timing for North America Eastern TZ - day break here. Pacific/Mountain TZ should be fine.

ISO timestamps are the one true way:

No, they'll just get a spectacular view of the aurora.
