There was no traffic on the list. Anyhow, according to a friend who pays attention to such things at http://www.spaceweather.com that there's a good chance of a lovely Aurora being visible in this part of the planet tomorrow, 14 December around 6pm assuming the earth weather is agreeable. Thought you might be interested. I'd suggest meeting up someplace like Calton Hill (or maybe the closer to the shore?) but I don't expect to be in town.

Not only that, but also a meteor shower (the Geminids). However, it's easy to predict that it'll be cloudy and wet. I might be out and about, but I think I'd be lucky to see any auroras.
