Solar Tsunami - Will we get to see a spectacular Light show


The sun may be about to put on a colourful light show normally only seen by those lucky enough to visit the land of the midnight or Alaska.

That's because of two minor solar storms - coronal mass ejections - that flared on Sunday and are shooting tons of plasma directly at Earth.

The event is likely to affect us today and we have to hope that tonight we have clear skies so that we may at least get a chance of seeing something that only a few people are fortunate enough to experience in a lifetime.

I will be keeping watch tonight..... lets hope that all the conditions are favourable and nature puts on a spectacular event
