A local fisherman sent me this footage of a Basking Shark he saw the other day. I've had to mute the voice as there was a few choice words of excitement but totally understandable.

The arrival of a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) from the sun means that aurora sightings may be possible after dark this evening

Scotland and northern England have the best chance of seeing the #NorthernLights with a good chance of clear skies too

A geomagnetic storm will give an enhanced chance of #aurora activity tonight ✨

The #NorthernLights may be visible across Scotland, as well as Northern Ireland and parts of northern England with clear spells to start, before turning cloudier from the west later

Roads closed, rivers rising, and saturated soil.

Heavy rain combined with high tides has led to problems today.

The water now has to work its way of our rivers - This is the Tyne already struggling. Keep an eye on the forecast and flood warnings:

For those who have been asking after my dad since the kidney transplant - it's a case of so far, so great!

(And as for me - I often forget it happened, so that must be a sign of a successful recovery)

Thanks for all you messages.

Bluebells don’t recover if you stand on them, please stick to paths if you can
