The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued a geomagnetic storm watch from Friday night into Saturday, meaning that the Northern Lights may be visible to some northern states.NOAA said the aurora may become visible over some northern states and upper Midwestern states, from New York to Idaho. Unfortunately, due to a round of showers and cloud cover expected starting Friday, FOX 13 meteorologists predict that we won't be able to see the Northern Lights in our area.
The watches help government agencies, power providers, telecommunication companies and satellite operators prepare to protect systems impacted by space weather.Geomagnetic storms can produce stronger aurora borealis lights or Northern Lights, which normally occur at the poles, but space weather can cause the lights to expand into the northern edge of the U.S.
