Details:
My remote-observatory all-sky camera is streamed 24/7 to my desktop. As I was looking on how my telescope is doing I noticed an unusual aurora-arc in it and scrambled outdoors to have a look myself. Despite being faint to the naked eye it was obvious to the sensitive all-sky camera taking photos continuously approx. 100km away from my location in a dark sky site.
After doing some research this seems to be RAGDA or Red Arc with Green Diffuse Aurora. This form of auroras is only recently discovered by team of Finnish amateur astronomers.
A time-lapse of the event is visible here on my website as I couldn't upload it here:
