Aurora over Mackinac … and a chance tonight!

I’ve had an eye on the Space Weather over the last few days, and while it doesn’t look like this weekend’s G1 level solar storm has produced anything, there’s a slight chance we’ll see something tonight. Their definition of the G1 level says that aurora may be visible at high latitudes, i.e., northern tier of the U.S. such as northern Michigan and Maine, so you want to check tonight!

Neil shot these Northern Lights over the Straits during the early hours of July 15, 2013. Check it out bigger, view his slideshow and see lots more from Neil on Michigan in Pictures too!
