Friday 3/24/23 and this weekend check outside if your in states below to possibly see arura in sky...so awsome,if you see it share pics please.Ty.

addition to the upcoming visible alignment between the moon, Venus, and Mars, the Earth's higher latitudes will likely witness moderate auroras tonight, on Friday, March 24, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reports. According to the NOAA's forecast, on March 24 a level 2 geomagnetic storm, which is considered "moderate" according to the NOAA scale, will affect our planet, and moderate auroras are expected because of it.

Specifically, according to tonight's NOAA aurora forecast, some northern states in the contiguous United States might witness the phenomenon, including Washington, Montana, the northern part of South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and even the northern tip of Michigan.

The reason behind this geomagnetic storm seems to be an actual "hole" in the sun's atmosphere. There is nothing to worry about, though. Coronal holes are a pretty standard occurrence in the sun's atmosphere, and when they happen, they allow the solar wind to escape faster into space, resulting in stronger winds.

When solar winds are strong enough, they can affect the Earth and influence geomagnetic storms, which then result in moderate-to-strong auroras. Last month, an aurora watch was in place due to a strong geomagnetic storm, and some states in North America were able to witness the phenomenon.

Solar activity and subsequent geomagnetic storms can also bring some interference, including radio blackouts. According to the NOAA, there is currently a slight chance for R1-R2 (minor-moderate) radio blackout risk.
