Not sure here in proper continental Europe, but the usual sightings in the Arctic Circle are typically very short. Like it shows up for a minute or even not so.

Not sure here in proper continental Europe, but the usual sightings in the Arctic Circle are typically very short. Like it shows up for a minute or even not so. Then you wait an hour and another sighting for tens of seconds.
Obviously sometimes it lasts for hours, but this is nothing frequent (in given location).
- sllabres 2y agoI am looking at the foto webcam images too and haven't seen the aurora myself, but the photos show a much longer timespan: For Wildhaus the first image with a pink/greenish glow is at 22:22 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/wildhaus/2024/05/10/2220 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/wildhaus/2024/05/10/2220 and this continues through the entire night https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/wildhaus/2024/05/10/2230 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/wildhaus/2024/05/10/2230 till shortly before sunset, where the exposure time probably shortens too much to capture the color of the the aurora https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/wildhaus/2024/05/11/0420 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/wildhaus/2024/05/11/0420 Other locations: https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/ewa/2024/05/11/0330 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/ewa/2024/05/11/0330 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/glecksteinhuette/2024/05/11/0400 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/glecksteinhuette/2024/05/1... https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/hochleckenhaus/2024/05/11/0100 https://www.foto-webcam.eu/webcam/hochleckenhaus/2024/05/11/...
