This image was taken at 00:14 BST. The aurora was visible intermittently between 8pm and 2am. Faint pink and green hues were visible to the naked eye. Cameras revealed much more. In less light-polluted areas the colours were much more vivid.

We had unexpectedly amazing views of the aurora at latitide 52 degrees N on the night of 10th/11th May 2024. It is clear that the activity is visible entirely in the northern portion of the sky. The intensity hit KP9/ Extreme storm (G5) on the KP scale, a reading last seen in 2003.
