I took a few with my phone from my front gate last night, just as a record. What amazed me is that they were visible at this latitude, from in the city with all its light pollution.
I have vague plans to keep an eye out tonight, not sure if I want to go to the effort of getting any proper photos.
Cheers,
Dave

In some ways I'm ideally situated now: Good northerly location
(Scotland) and far away from any significant light pollution. AND the
weather has been pretty clear - unusual for Scotland. But we've been
doing long hikes during the day and I've been too exhausted to stay up
until it's dark enough to look for auroras (which is made no easier by
the fact that sunset comes very late at these latitudes).

Zillions of pics on Twitter, and of course I was in the land of Nod when it all happened :-)
Saturday night I was driving home from some work at a football match, and too zonked to stop and stare at the sky.
What annoys me is that there’s loads of photos by people who say ‘ooh yeah you have to use a long exposure on a camera to really see it well, can be tricky with the naked eye…’ well I wanna see it blaring at me with my own eyeballs so sod that!!

Philly is a bit far south, and it was cloudy and wet (and still is).

I had beautiful clear skies. Went out about 10:00pm, quick iPhone snap to verify that the green glow was not my imagination. Set up tripod, did a series of long and long]ger exposures… Zip. Nada. Well, in one frame I can see the edge of the light show down low on the horizon, mostly covered by intervening trees and structures.
But the iPhone snap was decent. Clouds are building up, I’ll go back out tonight, both phone and real camera again. And hopefully I’ll catch the show …

There's been a photo in the local paper with bright aurora right above
and behind the Cologne cathedral. And if ever there's a place with
extreme light pollution, then it's here.

I was up in Great Smokey Mountains National Park for a long weekend, but
there was fairly heavy overcast.
Lots of people up at Newfound Gap on Saturday night showed me their
great cell phone photos & videos they'd taken on Friday night
... when I was asleep in Pigeon Forge. But I don't think I missed
anything because it was overcast & raining in Pigeon Forge Friday night too.
Bright & sunny most of the day, but the clouds rolled in right around
sunset.
