This week, millions of Americans will get a rare
glimpse of the northern lights. A solar storm.
This Thursday is expected to make the celestial phenomenon visible
across 17 states in the northern us all the way
from Washington to Maine. So peak viewing time will
be between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time.
That's according to federal forecasters, the northern lights most
commonly seen at higher latitudes are caused by solar wind
hitting earth's atmosphere and it would be gorgeous, gorgeous
, gorgeous. Yes.
