I am signed up to receive space weather alerts from the BGS (British Geological Survey).
There was one last night of possible aurora visible in the UK for 23rd-25th.

Thanks. Another site is the AuroraWatch from Lancaster University which gives real-time activity in one hour blocks.

There is also an AururaWatch app from which I recieve alerts of magnetic activity (I've set mine at amber), but note this is not a forecast, it is just when it happens. So sometimes I wake up and find I received a red alert overnight.

There's a @aurorawatchuk Twitter account which posts alerts too.

Scott.
