If conditions are favorable, tonight may offer a chance to view the northern lights due to a recent X 1.9 solar flare and subsequent coronal mass ejection (CME) that could create a G4 geomagnetic storm. The U.S. Space Weather Prediction Center indicates that Earth is on the CME’s path, enhancing visibility for the aurora borealis. Optimal viewing locations should be dark and cloud-free, as this time of year often brings increased cloud cover. For real-time updates, apps like Aurora Alerts and Aurora Forecast can help determine visibility in specific areas.
