In the early hours of Monday August 12th, 2024 residents around the region took out their cameras and snapped some phenomenal pictures of the Norther Lights.

Many weren't expecting to catch such a sight, but were actually waiting on the Pereids Meteor Shower. Needless to say it was a great way to start a week. It looks like we can expect an even bigger spectacle this month.
