A strong geomagnetic storm unleashed by multiple magnetic eruptions in the sun means that many Americans in the lowest 48 could be treated with a great show on Tuesday night and early in the morning of Wetnes, the southern light of the south like Kentucky.
The lights of the north are produced by geomagnetic storms, or phenomena in which the waves of participation of the Sun cause a disturbance in the magnetic field that surrounds our planet.
The NOAA Space Meteorological Prediction Center issued a geomagnetic storm warning for a “strong” G3 level event on the geomagnetic storm scale for Wednesday.
The scale rises to G5.
Those interested in seeing the Boreal Aurora on Tuesday night and morning on Wednesday you can consult the forecast below to see if the clouds could get on the road.
Americans in cities, such as Frankfort, Kentucky and Chicago, will have some of the clearest skies.
Unfortunately, the clouds will reign supreme on Pennsylvania and much of the northeast.
The most vivid views of the Boreal Aurora will take place on the rocky mountains and the west of the United States just before dawn, according to the meteorologist of the Fox Prognosis Center of Fox Christopher Tate.
The best way to see the dawn is to find a place away from the city’s lights with a clear view of the northern horizon.
The lights will appear better in the camera, especially with a few seconds of exposure.
But strong screens are still visible only with the eyes.
In addition to creating the Northern Aurora, the G3 geomagnetic storm has the potential to interrupt radio frequencies and cause some satellite navigation problems.
After the initial level of the G3 geomagnetic storm, the SWPC said the storm will decrease to a G1 on Thursday and then below the G1 for Friday.
