Hopefully I will get a great view of this as the forecast is for clear skies tomorrow.

I saw a few earlier, there was a period of about an hour where 50+ were visible to the naked eye but it's just too damn cold to stand outside for more than a few minutes at a time and I don't get any good sky panorama from indoors unfortunately.

How's the light pollution where you are Con? Best views here are facing Preston but there's more light that way too.
