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

      You will see the Hugh in the pic

      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: https://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.

      EDIT: Apparently you’re going to want to see some red on the map here: https://seetheaurora.com/live-data
