Northern Lights Expected Across Much of the US Amid High Solar Activity

A strong geomagnetic storm, classified as G3, is forecasted to bring the Northern Lights to nearly half of the United States, with visibility possible in 22 states, including New York, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. Residents are encouraged to look to the skies on Thursday and Friday nights as heightened solar activity, prompted by a series of powerful X-class solar flares and coronal mass ejections, could illuminate the atmosphere with stunning auroras. NOAA has issued a watch alerting to this unusual celestial event, which may also disrupt GPS and power systems. As solar conditions continue to evolve, experts are closely monitoring the situation to provide updates on aurora visibility and potential tech impacts.
