From the Telegraph
Pictured: breathtaking Northern Lights shining across Britain
Stargazers were given an extraordinary treat after the beautiful Northern Lights made a rare appearance across parts of Britain.
The aurora borealis are rarely seen in this country but the stunning Northern Lights, which normally appear above Iceland and Norway, were seen further south this weekend due to unusual solar activity.
The skies lit up in gorgeous green arcs across much of Scotland on Sunday night and were reported as far south as Cleveland, Cumbria, Northumberland and Yorkshire.
Scientists say that even Londoners might be able to catch a glimpse of the astonishing phenomenon later this week.
The Royal Observatory reported that the last recording sightings of the phenomenon as far south as the capital was at the start of the Second World War in 1939.
Specialist photographer Reed Ingram Weir, 26, took a series of breathtaking photographs from the A1 near Anick, Northumberland.
