So this is looking south-southwest from the northern end of Heidelberg Heights at 10:30pm. So it's not the moon behind clouds or anything. The camera has made it a bit brighter, but it's genuinely quite lighter outside than normal for this hour at this time of year. This was the brightest spot, but it's pretty light everywhere, TBH.

I know the answer is: light from down here reflecting off low clouds. But I don't recall there being so much light around this time of night or the city lights (or Heidelberg/Rosanna lights anyway) being so bright on other low cloud events.

    Yep, lighting from north East Link plus sinkhole repairs plus Eastern freeway. Lots of temporary high intensity lighting reflecting from low cloud

    Is there any new led billboards put up in the area??? We have had some installed on the Monash Freeway in Mulgrave and it’s insanely bright some nights.
