I wish I was out that way. The last time I saw an Aurora was in 2004 and even then, they are so infrequent in my area, that I had to pull over to the side of the road and sit and try to figure out what it was for a few. I try to look for them on web cams and do not seem to have any luck seeing them there as well. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramayr Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Really? Wow thanks for the heads up - hope it comes down as far as Yorkshire :)My late granddad was stationed in Iceland during the war and he told me about them as a kid.Apparently the folklore in Iceland is if you talk about the northern lights they come down and take you away - so they are rarely mentioned.
