Missed the dazzling northern lights show? You might get another chance Saturday night

A second chance to view the magnificent auroras from a series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the sun will arrive Saturday evening in case you missed the show the previous night.

A second chance to view the magnificent auroras from a series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the sun will arrive Saturday evening in case you missed the show the previous night. Auroras might be seen as far south as Alabama later Saturday, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Space Weather Prediction Center. The best viewing will be across the Ohio River Valley through the Midwest and into the Pacific Northwest. In general, it’s good to start looking during the time right after sunset. Weather, of course, is key, as cloud cover may limit the visibility of the aurora. “Don’t worry about it because this is not like an eclipse. This is a multiday event,” CNN meteorologist Chad Myers said. “It will be visible across most of North America, maybe not all the way down to the Gulf Coast, but it’ll be close.” Cloudy conditions will persist from the Rockies into Texas and the northern Gulf Coast as well as much of the Northeast.
