Scotland to be treated to Northern Lights starting tonight - how to see aurora borealis

After being treated to a huge Northern Lights display last month, Scottish stargazers have another chance to catch the celestial event tonight.

Forecasters have reported that the auroral oval - the circle of the hypnotic sky light - could become more enhanced on Thursday night and last until the weekend. The Met Office reports that Scots in the north are in a good place to see bursts of solar activity, thanks to the country's position in the Northern Hemisphere.

The latest show is thanks to a bout of solar winds travelling to Earth, which is set to cause solar storms, resulting in the aurora borealis. These conditions could result in aurora sightings from Thursday, March 30 until Saturday, April 1.
