A geomagnetic storm watch is in effect for certain areas. This watch was issued due to Coronal Mass Ejections that left the sun a few days ago. The aurora may become visible in some parts of the northern Midwest.

To see this phenomenon, find a spot with minimal light pollution and look towards the northern horizon. It may appear as glows or pillars of green or reddish color. Allow time for eyes to adjust to the darkness for better viewing.

Further details and viewing tips are available, including an aurora forecast and tips for capturing photos of the event.
