Northern Lights Could Be Visible In Pa. This Weekend

A large solar flare on Thursday could cause a strong geo-magnetic storm making the Aurora Borealis visible much farther south than usual.

Pennsylvania is right on the southern edge of where the North Lights could be seen on Saturday and Sunday.

However, KDKA Meteorologist Ray Petelin says that clouds will likely block the view of the lights.

Northern Lights this weekend, one of the best opportunities to see the aurora so far in 2021.

A major X-class solar flare erupted on the sun on Thursday, hurling charged particles into space toward the Earth. This event is known as a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME), and when it reaches the Earth, it interacts with the planet’s magnetic field to create awe-inspiring colors in the night sky.

The aurora is typically limited to areas near the north and south poles, but when a bigger CME occurs, like the one this week, the aurora can be seen glowing in the sky farther south, including parts of the contiguous United States and northern Europe.

The best of the Aurora Borealis is predicted to glow the night before Halloween, sometimes referred to as Mischief Night.

According to NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC), a “strong” geomagnetic storm will arrive on Saturday, Oct. 30, and will continue into Halloween. This means that the best opportunity to see the aurora will be on Saturday night, although the storm could potentially linger into Sunday night.

When solar storms of this magnitude occur, the glow of the aurora is typically seen over New England, across the north-central U.S. and parts of the Pacific Northwest. However, clouds could disappoint people hoping to see the celestial lights for the first time

part of the northern Plains, as well as across the border in the eastern Canadian Prairies and much of Ontario and Quebec.


When large solar storms hit the Earth, they can do more than just spark the aurora in the sky.

This was the case on Halloween in 2003 when a series of major solar flares triggered one of the most impressive solar storms in recent history. During the Halloween solar s
