Scientific paper

WITH reference to your note in NATURE of August 16 referring to a magnetic storm on the night of August 9-10, it may be of interest to learn that an aurora was seen here that night. It was first seen a few minutes before 10 p.m. (G.M.T.), when it appeared as a glow in the northern sky. Two streamers were lust discernible at first, but they gradually increased in numbers and became clearer, at the same time growing longer and brighter and moving towards the west. The longest reached to the centre of the Great Bear. Small, sharp, and delicate streamers, although not prominent, were distinctly seen in the larger streamers. There was no colouring seen at all, but merely a white glow. By 11.15 all traces of it had vanished.
