Northern Lights visible in Scotland from tomorrow as experts forecast stunning aurora borealis

The Northern Lights are expected to be visible in Scotland tomorrow night, according to forecasters.

But the chances of getting the best view of the aurora may be scuppered, as the Met Office is anticipating heavy cloud over much of Scotland over the next few days.
Heavy rain, snow and potentially gale force winds are expected to dominate the forecast as Scots put the spring on pause during the week.
