Yet to see any up here, in spite of subscribing to the notification system. Too light oo late in the summer,a nd usually overcast in the winter. Still hopefull though.

Back to the original issue, if you have a clear night and are somewhere non-urban, might be worth looking up http://www.spaceweather.com/ and

Keep watching the skies.
