Brits are being urged to look up to the sky tonight as the Northern Lights are set to make an appearance and viewing conditions will be 'ideal', according to the Met Office.
The weather agency said clear skies will mean Brits have a good chance of spotting the colourful light display in the early hours of Friday morning.
The aurora could be visible in parts of northern England as well as in Scotland and Northern Ireland. On social media, the Met Office posted: "You might want to look up at the sky tonight because there's the chance of seeing the aurora.
Clear skies for most overnight will make for ideal viewing conditions, with sightings possible across Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England."
