THE AURORA Borealis was visible over West Fife last night with many Press readers capturing the special sight on their cameras.

Several of the images that were sent to us can be viewed in our gallery.

The Met Office said on their website: “A fast coronal mass ejection related to a large flare and filament combination that left the Sun on 09 Oct arrived at Earth through the second half of 10 Oct and is having ongoing effects, including Severe Geomagnetic storms.

“Aurora has been sighted as far south as southern England and on the continent.

"The chances of aurora remain initially, though gradually easing through 11 Oct, becoming increasingly confined to far northern geomagnetic latitudes by 13 Oct.”
