Stunning ‘Night Shining’ Clouds Seen Over Scotland

Weather watchers have been getting up early and staying up late to spot Noctilucent clouds.

The clouds can be spotted in summertime before sunrise and sunset.

Also known as night shining clouds, they are visible when ice crystals form high in Earth’s atmosphere and are underlit by the Sun.

On Thursday and Friday they were spotted from Aberdeenshire, Dumfries and Galloway, Harris and Moray.
