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.
Well, this was quite unexpected. A night camera which was outside trying to capture the Northern Lights witnessed that and something else all together. It was a sudden burst of jellyfish sprites over Missouri.
The saying what goes around comes around could not be truer than the sunspot which fueled the historic Northern Lights over Missouri a few weeks ago. It's about to face Earth again which could mean another light show is imminent.
You might want to avoid setting your smartphone down on a rock in Illinois for awhile. There is scientific evidence that recent solar flares literally electrified rocks and soil in the Land of Lincoln.
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.
