Many Middle Tennesseans were treated to a rare and beautiful sight on Friday night as they witnessed the Northern Lights in the sky. A geomagnetic storm reached a powerful G5 intensity, creating stunning visuals. While the chance to see the Northern Lights on Saturday night is not as favorable, there is still a possibility of catching a glimpse during the early morning hours on Sunday.
The impact of the G5 storm on Friday was significant, making it one of the strongest in over 20 years globally. Despite the high intensity of the storm, there have been no major problems reported, although the storm did provide mesmerizing views of the Northern Lights across the South.
Individuals who are lucky enough to see the Northern Lights are encouraged to capture the moment and share their pictures with WKRN. The storm highlights the power and beauty of nature, reminding us of the wonders that can be observed in the night sky.
