The Northern Lights (aurora borealis) are visible over parts of the UK, with reports of pink, purple and yellow hues appearing in the night sky. Several outlets say the display is driven by conditions allowing aurora sightings, and that more viewing may be possible over the next few nights.
The Met Office provides guidance on where and when to look, including advice for improving chances of seeing the aurora. Different reports focus on where sightings are most likely, such as across the north and over specific nations, and on the prospect of continued activity. One outlet notes the potential for further nights of lights, while others emphasise tonight’s opportunities and practical tips for observers in places including Wales and across the UK.
