After a crack appeared in the atmosphere, the Northern Lights were visible over parts of Missouri Friday night and might be visible Saturday night, too.
Early Thursday morning, there was yet another surprise as red auroras were clearly viewable in many locations over Missouri thanks to a sudden solar storm.
Thanks to a major solar storm that is underway as of this writing, you can barely see the Northern Lights which are visible even from parts of northern Missouri and there's video to prove it.
In case you didn't know, predicting weather is hard. Predicting weather in space is even more difficult. That's why it's with a bit of trepidation I mention that there's a chance that an incoming 'halo CME' could make the Northern Lights visible over Illinois this week.
Both Missouri and Illinois have been treated to back-to-back days of Northern Lights visible over both states and there's a chance that could happen again Sunday night based on the current aurora forecast.
If you thought Friday night was spectacular with the Northern Lights being visible over all of Missouri Friday night, there's a chance the Show Me State will get an encore Saturday night, too.
