From Tuesday night into early Wednesday, a powerful G4 geomagnetic storm made the Aurora Borealis visible far beyond its usual range. Skywatchers across Europe, from Ireland and the UK to Poland and Austria, caught rare glimpses of the northern lights.
In Austria, shades of red and pink coloured the skies over Salzburg, Filzmoos, Kaprun, Rauris, and Kolsassberg in Tyrol. The sight was exceptional at these southern latitudes.
