In many places in southern Norway, you could see the northern lights on a Thursday night.

NTB photographers took pictures of the phenomenal sky in the center of Oslo, among others.

VG spoke to readers who reported the appearance of the aurora as far as Lillesand on Thursday night. A number of local newspapers in eastern Norway also report on this phenomenon. Among them are Drammens Tidende, Romerikes Blad, Fredriksstad Blad and Telemarksavisa and Wataha.

- Usually now, after a real solar storm, it turns into a calm, steady light. It's not easy to distinguish it from a cloud, but if you stand still you'll see it, says astronomer Vegard Lundby Rekaa for VG.
