Northern lights forecast: Aurora could be visible in some states on New Year’s Eve

Category: Weather

A strong geomagnetic storm is expected on Tuesday, allowing the northern lights to be visible as far south as Iowa and Wisconsin. The best viewing time is between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., and moving away from light pollution will enhance visibility. The event coincides with a 'Black Moon' that will keep the night sky dark.
