Notes:

In the table below:

Table Entries with a red background indicate passes where: 0° < Maximum Elevation ≤ 30°
Table Entries with a yellow background indicate passes where: 30° < Maximum Elevation ≤ 60°
Table Entries with a green background indicate passes where: 60° < Maximum Elevation ≤ 90°
Times are UK clock time, that is GMT/UTC during the winter and BST/UTC+1:00 during the summer
Elevation shows the degrees above the horizon. Zero degrees is the horizon and ninety degrees is directly overhead
Azimuth represents the direction to the ISS using a traditional 16 cardinal point compass rose

If you want to run your own location specific pass predictions try using:

The AMSAT On line satellite pass predictions
The Heavens Above website

The AMSAT site will require either:

Method 1

Your 6 character IARU (Maidenhead) locator square (e.g. IO81qk); and
Your elevation in metres (e.g. 64).

Method 2

The absolute (without +ve or -ve sign) value of your Latitude in decimal degrees and selecting North where the original value is positive (greater than 0) or selecting South where the original value is negative (less than 0) (e.g. 51.425358 North);
The absolute (without +ve or -ve sign) value of your Longitude in decimal degrees and selecting East where the original value is positive (greater than 0) or selecting West where the original value is negative (less than 0) (e.g. 2.593782 West);
Your elevation in metres (e.g. 64).

The Heavens Above site is more flexible and will accept any of:

Method 1

Your address including postcode (e.g. Novers Park Community Association, Rear of 124 Novers Park Road, Bristol, BS4 1RN); and
Your elevation in metres (e.g. 64).

Method 2

Your What.Three.Words location descriptor (e.g. ///woke.fork.moth); and
Your elevation in metres (e.g. 64).

Method 3

Your Latitude in decimal degrees where +ve is north of the equator and -ve is south of the equator (e.g. 51.425358);
Your Longitude in decimal degrees where +ve is east of the Greenwich Meridian and -ve is west of the Greenwich Meridian (e.g. -2.593782); and
Your elevation in metres (e.g. 64).

When using Heavens Above don’t forget to check that you have the correct timezone (e.g. (GMT +0:00) United Kingdom/Ireland)

Heavens Above understands British Summer Time and corrects accordingly
