Stargazers may be in luck this evening as the Northern Lights are set to illuminate the night sky.
A series of coronal mass ejection (CMEs) accompanies by a huge solar storm from the sun is set to light up out skies, according to the Met Office's Space Weather, increasing the chances of an aurora borealis show above Scotland.
In a Tweet on Wednesday, the Met Office explained that there is a growing chance of spotting the light phenomenon on Thursday night - April 20 - specifically as well as possible sighting on Friday. The forecasters added that the spectacular will be more likely visible if skies remain clear.
