Northern Lights visible second night in a row, lively on the coast

Like the night before, many photos and videos of people trying to immortalize the natural phenomenon are circulating on social networks.

The media attention on the aurora from the previous night probably sparked the curiosity of many aurora hunters. Omrop Friesland reports that “dozens of people” came to the coast.

Traffic jam for the Northern Lights

For example, in Zwarte Haan, a hamlet on the Wadden Sea, more than a hundred people are said to have gathered to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights. Fifteen minutes further, in the Westhoek, a traffic jam of aurora borealis observers would have occurred.

And it is not only in the northern provinces that it has struck. Many people in Zeeland also tried to catch the light. Zeeland Broadcasting even speaks to a Belgian couple who drove for two hours, from Belgian Limburg, to experience the Northern Lights.
