Northern Lights

Postby Big Fat Frosty » Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:04 pm

holy shit thats awesome has this ever happened before?

Extraordinary light display of Northern Lights .... in the skies above YORKSHIRE!
These extraordinary colours filled the night sky above Yorkshire last night as the Northern Lights unfolded over the British Isles. Subtle hues of purple, yellow, orange, and even neon green filled the heavens. The display, normally only visible far further North in the Arctic Circle, has reached so far South because of an unusually powerful solar explosion which sent streams of particles across space to collide with atoms in the upper earth atmosphere

That's cool :awesome:

Damn good pics as well. Wonder if anyone here actually saw them for real?
I'm too far south for anything like that, no matter how freak the conditions!
