So I check spaceweather.com and see this:

What this says: right now the northern lights are going absolutely bonkers. So I dash outside and see… the sky all lit up by the nearly full moon, washing out any hope of seeing the faint aurora on the horizon. Grrrr. The moon well and truly setting is an hour away; these aurora displays tend to be good for *minutes.*
