    Ok, so apparantly they are showing over Carlow. It's quite cloudy (:mad:) but I think I can make something out. Does anybody have any information on this? ANY information at all please.

    Haven't heard anything about it - too cloudy here to see anything anyway.

    Just saw this now and can't believe it-was heading back west on Wednesday night last and saw hazy green glow-like a green curtain- in WNW-thought it might have been Northern lights but as I hadn't heard anything, thought I was mistaken. Also, I was on a country road on Saturday night and thought I could see a night rainbow almost overhead. There was an unforgettable display here about 3 years ago (or maybe 4)-dancing pink and green swirls of light, rainbows etc. My grandad used to tell us that when he was a child in Kerry, they could be seen fairly regularly but that was my first time to see anything of the sort. It was magical.:D

    Saw them years ago in Iceland, what a sight!! Have heard nothing about them being visible from Ireland at the moment. Would be surprised as the Sun is going through a very quite cycle at the moment.

    I'd say Iceland was amazing. Maybe next year. I wonder what green glow was then?
