Aurora watchers in for a show?

Fans of the Northern Lights could be in for a treat this evening - if the weather is clear.

A strong electromagnetic storm is due to hit earth today, and could give an aurora show visible from the Isle of Man.

The coronal mass ejection from the sun means you may see the lights from 10pm tonight right the way through until Wednesday morning.

But the Met Office says the sky will turn cloudy later this evening, meaning we may miss out on the light show.
