aurora borealis

It's been a pretty interesting month of August when it comes things like meteor showers and super moons--but the best may be yet to come, and it may happen as early as tonight in the skies over Northern Illinois.

Assuming the clouds give way and give us some clear skies, we should not only get a look at the Aurora Borealis tonight (Thursday) in the Rockford area, but also Friday night, too.

A moderate geomagnetic storm might give us a chance to see the Northern Lights.

Have you ever seen the Northern Lights? They are on my 'bucket list', so this rare magnetic storm coming has me very excited.

It was a clear day on Monday, let hope for a clear night tonight. If you're up late, look to the skies for what might be a great light show.
