Abstract
THE account, in NATURE for December 16 (p. 159), of a bright cloud “emitting brilliant rays of light,” that suddenly appeared at Hamar, in Norway, on the night of November 3, recalls the fact that on November 2 there was at Lyons, New York, an aurora which at one time during the evening consisted entirely of detached luminous clouds, as was noted in NATURE for November 18 (p. 54). It is stated that on November 4 one of the finest auroras of the year was visible at Throndhjem, Norway.
