Scotland's sole-surviving patch from last winter was seen yesterday by Douglas Cairns as he took his light aircraft for a service. The snow visible here fell in late 2019 and is in the region of 20 metres long.
Turbulence precluded a closer look at the patch.

On #Saturday night increased geomagnetic activity means #aurora sightings will be possible as far south as Norfolk 🔭✨
Here's a look at which areas may have clear skies tomorrow night and have a chance of spotting the #NorthernLights #spaceweather

Aurora is likely to occur over much of Scotland and perhaps extend into northern England and Northern Ireland tonight
For many in these areas it will be too cloudy but there are some spots in with a chance 👇
