The Met Office reports that Scots will be treated to another mesmerising viewing of the Northern Lights.
The Northern Lights stunned onlookers on Friday night and those hoping for a repeat viewing will get another opportunity tonight.
It comes after bursts of plasma on the sun called Multiple Coronal Mass Ejections arrived late on May 10. The "significantly enhanced" aurora lasted overnight across the country. Simon King, lead BBC weather presenter and meteorologist, wrote on X that the solar activity may not decline quite as much as expected. He explained: "Worth noting that geomagnetic activity has still been extreme at times through today so it might not drop off as much as suggested earlier."
