The colorful sky could be seen as far as northern California.
A G4 storm will activate the northern lights tonight , bringing them much farther south across North America, including many northern states.INDIANA, USA — Will we see the northern lights dancing above our heads in Indiana? Most likely not. But there is still a chance to see them at a distance, especially with a camera. Otherwise you need to go north, or take a flight above the clouds. Plus, the full moon will make them even tougher to see.
Note: Northern lights forecast are very tricky and can change quickly. This is a best guess from local and national meteorologists. Social media forecasts usually are too aggressive.The vast majority of Alaska and Canada will get a showing the aurora borealis, however a G4 storm with an intense solar wind may help the charged particles to move farther south to some northern states across the U.S.
The green area shows places that may be able to see the northern lights with your own eyes. They may be dancing right above our heads for those living along the U.S. – Canada border. Farther south in the green area, they will likely still be at a distance in the northern sky.Minus cloud chances , you should be able to see the aurora across most of Indiana, away from city lights, with the help of a long-exposure camera. You may not able to see them with your eyes.
As our next cold front approaches, clouds will be moving into Indiana. We have highlighted an area in northeast Indiana where there should be fewer clouds blocking the chance to see the lights.There may even be a few light rain showers that develop tonight, especially in western Indiana. That also coordinates with thicker clouds.Generally, get away from city lights. The more rural you are, the better chance you will have. Then look north.
The best chance to see the lights will be the farther north you go. Some of the best spots for watching the northern lights are at the Lake Michigan lakeshore where there is less light pollution.The northern lights have fascinated humankind for thousands of years. We still do not completely understand them. We watch for CME's , or bursts of solar energy from the surface of the sun. Once they burst, they usually take 1-3 days to hit the earth, if we are in the direct path.
