双语新闻：地磁风暴持续，英国出现罕见极光

The Northern Lights might be visible in northern parts of the UK again on Saturday after the rare phenomenon was spotted across the country overnight.
继夜间在英国各地发现这种罕见现象后，周六英国北部地区可能会再次看到北极光。

Also known as aurora borealis, the bands of pink and green light were seen across the UK and in parts of Europe after an “extreme” geomagnetic storm caused them to be more visible, according to the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
据美国国家海洋和大气管理局（NOAA）称，粉色和绿色光带也被称为北极光，在一场“极端”地磁风暴导致它们变得更加明显后，英国和欧洲部分地区都可以看到粉色和绿色光带。

Chris Snell, a meteorologist at the Met Office, said there were sightings “from top to tail across the country”.
英国气象局气象学家克里斯·斯内尔表示，“全国各地”都出现了目击事件。

He said: “It is hard to fully predict what will happen in the Earth’s atmosphere, but there will still be enhanced solar activity tonight, so the lights could be visible again in northern parts of the UK, including Scotland, Northern Ireland and the far north of England.”
他说：“很难完全预测地球大气层会发生什么，但今晚太阳活动仍然会增强，因此英国北部地区可能会再次看到极光，包括苏格兰、北爱尔兰和遥远的地方。”

Mr Snell said there were sightings in parts of Europe on Friday night as well, with the Met Office receiving pictures and information from locations including Prague and Barcelona.
斯内尔表示，周五晚上欧洲部分地区也出现了目击事件，英国气象局收到了来自布拉格和巴塞罗那等地的图片和信息。

Sightings in southern parts of the UK are less likely on Saturday, although Mr Snell said the lights might be visible through a strong camera lens.
周六，在英国南部地区出现目击事件的可能性较小，但斯内尔表示，通过强光相机镜头可能可以看到这些灯光。
