Aurora Borealis

Predicting when the Northern Lights will be visible is something that even NASA hasn't completely figured out, but there is a forecast regarding 3 incoming solar flares that could mean the Aurora Borealis will not only be visible in Illinois, but maybe even be overhead this weekend. Maybe.

If you call Wisconsin home, you definitely want to keep an eye on the skies Tuesday night as the Northern Lights should be brilliantly on display thanks to an incoming 'cannibal CME' from the sun.

Well, this was more than a little unexpected. The Northern Lights were visible so far south early Monday morning that multiple locations captured video of the sky spectacle.

The Northern Lights are a very hard sky phenomenon to predict. But, the current forecast says that these brilliant, colorful lights may be visible over most of Missouri and Illinois this weekend.

It's not common that the Northern Lights are visible as far south as Missouri. However, a surprise solar storm this week caused these lights to appear and they were dazzling as a new video share shows.

It's very hard to forecast where the Northern Lights will be visible. Keep that in mind as a new space forecast that shows it's very possible the Aurora Borealis might be visible over parts of Illinois Monday night due to another major solar storm.

Well, this was completely unexpected. Residents of northern Missouri were treated to a pleasant surprise when a shocking solar storm caused the Northern Lights to dance in the skies over Missouri.

There is hype growing that it's likely you'll be able to see a glorious display of the Northern Lights dazzling your eyeballs over Missouri and Illinois this Thursday night. Sorry to be a party pooper, but that doesn't appear likely to happen. At all.

There was an extraordinary display of the Aurora Borealis Thursday night as the colorful skies were visible much further south than expected. That resulted in the Northern Lights being visible even in Missouri as a new video share shows.

It would be a good idea to pay attention to the sky Tuesday night especially over northern Missouri as there's at least a chance the Northern Lights will be visible thanks to recent solar flares.
