Celestial spectacle! Dazzling Northern Lights set to illuminate UK skies tonight as solar storm strikes; see if your hometown will get a glimpse of this cosmic show

A powerful solar storm could make the Northern Lights visible in parts of the United Kingdom tonight. Residents in Scotland and as far south as Newcastle and Belfast have a chance to see the aurora borealis. Visibility may be affected by rain and clouds. Finding a dark location away from light pollution offers the best view.
