Tonight, don't miss the appearance of the aurora borealis in the French sky

Tonight, the Northern Lights will appear in the sky! A magical phenomenon not to be missed under any circumstances!

You may not know it, but northern Lights were observed in France on the night of Sunday February 26 to Monday February 27. An extremely rare phenomenon that is likely to happen again tonight, especially in Normandy.

As our colleagues from BFM TV point out, the appearance of this nocturnal spectacle – which generally occurs near the North and South poles – is due to strong solar activity.

« The activity of the Sun has been very sustained for several days, and a coronal mass ejection (CME) has reached the Earth in recent hours, since the aurora borealis has been photographed this evening in France “, commented on Twitter Asso Infoclimat.
