X5.1 solar flare, G4 geomagnetic storm watch

I'm in Ireland and went out last night to try and find it, last year I got some spectacular photos from my bedroom window. Alas it only peaked as it was over the US so sadly I missed out.

Ireland is far enough north that we actually get the aurora somewhat regularly. We rarely have clear skies though, making it a true "planets align" thing to actually see it.

There were some beautiful ones overhead around 2am and I slept right through them. Ah well.
