Stargazers around the UK were treated to the vivid colours of the aurora borealis on Saturday night; Sunday outlook provided

Stargazers around the UK were treated to the vivid colours of the aurora borealis on Saturday night. Areas in Scotland and Northern Ireland were well-positioned to view the display as the cloud and rain from a weather front moved southward, providing a fitting end to the spookiest night of the year for skywatchers and photographers.

BBC UK reports that the aurora's activity might persist into Sunday night, particularly in northern regions, but the intensity is anticipated to be lower compared to the display seen on Halloween night. The Northern Lights could potentially be seen again on Sunday night, primarily in Northern England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.

Following a recent rise in solar wind activity, the Met Office Space Weather Centre indicated there is another possibility of viewing the Northern Lights on Sunday night, especially across northern Scotland. However, a weather front advancing into the far north could introduce increasing cloud cover, which might block views in certain locations.

BBC UK notes that if the skies remain clear, the aurora may still present a display, though the activity is projected to be less intense than it was on Halloween night and is expected to gradually diminish starting from Monday.
