Northern Lights Could Dazzle U.S. This Weekend, NOAA Forecasts Geomagnetic Activity
A NOAA‑issued G1 geomagnetic storm watch due to a high‑speed solar wind could bring the Northern Lights as far south as the U.S. border this weekend, with the best displays in northern states and parts of Canada. For optimal viewing, seek dark, north‑facing spots away from city lights between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.; the near‑90% illuminated moon may wash out faint auroras, so long‑exposure photography can help capture them.
