Midsummer weather phenomenon?

I recall reading on this forum a couple of years ago about a certain light/weather phenomenon that can be seen at around FL30(I think) from late May to mid June.

Quite beautiful if I recall, but no idea what it was! Can anyone help?

In the UK we call it the sun, but it is a rarity so I understand the confusion. :}

Do you mean "Northen Lights"? Explosions from the surface of the sun, which when they hit our atmosphere make it look like lots of different colours?
