UK Set for Once in a Decade Northern Lights Display Next Month
- In the past year, the Aurora Borealis has been seen across the UK, reaching locations as far down as Dorset, Essex, Cambridgeshire, and Berkshire.
- This event followed an increase in solar activity as the Sun moved from its solar minimum in December 2019 toward the expected solar maximum in July 2025.
- Solar storms release charged particles that heat Earth's atmosphere, causing brighter auroras mostly near the poles but occasionally visible farther south in rare conditions.
- Meteorological specialists indicate that as solar activity intensifies, space weather events will become more common, improving the likelihood of witnessing the Aurora Borealis in the UK.
- This suggests aurora sightings will grow more common in the UK around and after the July solar maximum as geomagnetic storms intensify in the near future.
