looks like i missed nothing last night..... but will be up and out from now on... last year, despite going out, my last sighting was the 14th... so my time is running out?

Welcome back, hope you had a good holiday.  I thought last night that time and chances are ticking by.  Been putting the effort in, but so has the clouds, clear views have been few and far between from my tiny neck of the woods.  There's still a window of opportunity left, oh and hopefully a clear view.

Time is on your side, yes it is

Using the latest Daisy as a '3 day out' puts us back into the brighter more solid section, with the clouds past the 65° Lat

Looks to me like another dawn display.... flensburg is cloudy...

[Arnie Pie]

Maybe Rob, but don`t trust in the empty gap at the 'noon position'.

 I believe that the gaps around the daisy are as a result of the stitching together of the individual strips into the finished daisy.

The gaps are to regular to be natural

It`s showing  strong and bright at the edges of the gap

Edit; just in case

[Rush2019]

Oh beggar, blast and bums, cloud hindering view especially NNE, bit of encroachment too NW.  Looks like I'll be setting my alarm.

No, nothing here either, cloud taken over now. Will see how Flensburg one's develop, that will determine a final decision on setting alarm for possible show in a few hours.  

[mushymanrob]

Giving up... its dark now and no sign..

[mushymanrob]

Hold on.... i have a sighting, very low down on the northern horizon right of capella, barely visible..

[Rush2019]

Maybe a bit of a heads up for a morning show, developing nicely now Flensburg cam.

[Arnie Pie]

Nowt yet, but a good sign from Flensburg

I`m expecting to see the bright low structure in our skies soon., certainly during astronomical twilight

Maybe after Moonset which is due 01.35

[mushymanrob]

Not staying up though... but here

 

[Arnie Pie]

Beginning to show now

[Arnie Pie]

Flensburg is on fire showing to the N ,, We can expect the same in an hour or so

Edit; Nautical twilight starts around 2.50

2.25am almost, still clouded out here, can't  even spot a star in any direction.  Hope those waiting for a nautical twilight show get lucky.
