Quick Glance: Northern Lights Potential Display Over UK Tonight
- The Met Office has announced that the Northern Lights could be visible across northern parts of the UK tonight. This phenomenon, also known as Aurora Borealis, usually appears above Iceland and Norway but is rarely visible from the UK, mostly limited to Scotland.
- According to the Met Office, a combination of fast solar winds and the recent arrival of a coronal mass ejection from the sun could trigger a display from Sunday evening to Monday morning. The Northern Lights are created by particles from the sun carried on solar winds interacting with the Earth's atmosphere after being directed to the polar regions by the planet's magnetic field.
- Different gases have varying effects on the color of the display. Green signifies solar particles interacting with oxygen, while purple, blue, or pink hues are a result of nitrogen. Only under 'severe space weather conditions' can the lights be visible throughout the UK - even then, stargazers require a clear sky and reduced light pollution.

Quick Glance: Thames Water Directors Discuss Utility's Future
- The board of Thames Water engaged in crucial discussions as shareholders consider diluting a funding pledge. Shareholders, including the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) and China's sovereign wealth fund, may retract hundreds of millions of pounds in promised funding.
- Thames Water, employing about 7,000 people and serving nearly a quarter of the British population, is grappling with over £15 billion in debt. Shareholders had committed to provide £3.25 billion in the coming years, with the initial £750 million slated for this year.
- The shareholders' decision to reduce financial support could leave the heavily indebted company with few viable options to secure its future. Sky News previously reported that Whitehall officials had prepared contingency plans for Thames Water's potential collapse.
- Thames Water, serving 15 million customers in London and the south-east of England, has faced significant pressure due to leaks, sewage contamination, executive pay, and dividends. The prospect of temporary nationalisation in the event of a collapse could cost taxpayers billions.
