last night and over the next 2 nights Prof Brian Cox has said on twitter there is a strong solar storm hitting earth causing the northern lights to be seen further south than expected

in the uk it is normally the tip of scotland that sees them but could be expected to be seen the whole length of the country if the rating reaches the expected KP 7

to give you an idea, they are expected to be seen in brighton tonight, look where it is on the map Click for larger image

anyone else see anything last night/watching tonight?

some one in AK had best do a park shoot with the northern lights as the back drop! like a sun set shoot, but I think this would be so much sicker
