Sunflower Auroras – August 2024-23 by Nathan Miller
The NOAA/NWS Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a G3 (Strong) Geomagnetic Storm Watch for today through Sunday due to a pair of coronal mass ejections that are anticipated to arrive over the course of the next three days. This means that Northern Lights are VERY possible over the weekend!!
Nathan took this in August up on the Keweenaw Peninsula. See more in his Sunflower Auroras gallery on Flickr and for sure check out his photography & writing at Nathan Invincible.
Much (much) more Northern Lights on Michigan in Pictures!

In Scotland we are getting high KP predictions but we also have almost 100% cloud cover unfortunately

I’ve heard that from friends. As a McFarlane of Scottish descent, it’s for sure on my bucket list!!

Crossing my fingers – Saturday night looks best for me. I’ve not photographed or seen one yet!

Bummer that we got shut out. I’m seeing a Kp forecast topping out at 6 so not super likely tonight either. That’s how they roll though!

Yes, we have to be happy for what we have seen so far … who would have thought we’d see them here in Michigan?
