  How do I do this? I’m in Melbourne atm.

    You need it to not be cloudy, for starters 😆

    But even if it’s not cloudy, light pollution can also be an issue, so it might help to head further out of the city (see: darksitefinder.com/map/?i=/%234/-37.84/144.94)

    Basically, if you can’t see the stars, you can’t see the aurora.

    The only equipment that can help you ‘see’ it better would be taking a long exposure with a camera.

    Non cloud, then get your phone camera and long exposure night shot.

    You will see the Hugh in the pic

  According to BOM aurora won’t be visible - www.sws.bom.gov.au/Aurora/3/1. On the other hand there was a huge solar flare released yesterday so maybe it will be visible.
