Aurora Borealis/Northern Lights

Why Always Ste said:
Quite a clear sky out here now in Bury.
Bright moon, loads of stars, great view on my house roof.
Can you see anything? When you're looking north the light pollution from the city should be behind you.

I was thinking about this earlier, I reckon you'd need to be at least 20 miles from any significant light pollution to stand a chance of seeing anything, clear night or not. Cba. Would be interested in knowing though, for when this forecast comes along again.
