Nataliie Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 It's out there, but the sky is full of snow clouds, boohoo... I thought they said it might not come this far down though (the lights)? Oooh I'm so upset now I've always wanted to see it, gutted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortcrust Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I went up to the peaks last night and got caught in horrible fog! Felt a bit better this morning when a scientist type woman on the radio said that they weren't visible at all in mainland Britain. I can't remember exactly what she said (was half asleep...), but I think she said that it's very unlikely we'll get to see them at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nataliie Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 We'll probably not see them after tonight either will we? Oh dear, that sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampent Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 There are cheaper ways Get a glass of water, and float a pin on top, and the pin will point North. I do not know if you hve to magnetise the pin first, by stroking it with a magnet a few times x But the pin would sink? Its heavier than water or something.
