Catch the Northern Lights Across the U.S. This Thanksgiving Weekend
TL;DR Summary
A geomagnetic storm is expected to enhance the visibility of the Northern Lights across several northern U.S. states on Thanksgiving night into Friday. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) forecasts a Kp index of five, indicating bright auroral activity due to a filament eruption earlier in the week. The best viewing times are between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. in dark areas away from city lights. This increased activity is part of the sun's current maximum phase in its 11-year cycle, which began in 2019.
