These regions are less dense and have unipolar magnetic fields, which allow very fast streams of solar winds to escape into space. When these solar winds interact with the Earth\u2019s magnetic field, they can cause geomagnetic storms. The storms predicted for Sunday are only \u201cminor,\u201d but even these have the added effect of causing the aurora to appear visible from parts of the continental United States.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=1278\">\u2018Minions &amp; Monsters\u2019 Suffers Franchise\u2019s Worst Opening Weekend In U.S.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Where Could the Northern Lights Be Visible?<\/h2>\n<p>The aurora has a \u201clow likelihood\u201d of visibility in states along the U.S.-Canadian border for Sunday, including the very northern parts of Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan\u2019s Upper Peninsula. Most of Alaska could also see the northern lights, with a large portion of the state falling in the \u201chigh likelihood\u201d region of NOAA\u2019s aurora forecast map.<\/p>\n<h2>What\u2019s the Best Way to View the Northern Lights?<\/h2>\n<p>Experts recommend viewers travel as far north as possible before trying to catch the lights. Viewers should position themselves on a vantage point away from sources of light pollution with a clear view of the sky facing north. They should also try to time their trips to the hours wehn the aurora is most active\u2014typically between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=1276\">D.C.

Prospective photographers should remember to bring a tripod and remote timer, as all cameras need to sit still for long periods of time in order to gather enough light to capture photos of the dark sky. Smartphone users should also remember to shoot in RAW image format in night mode with their flash turned off.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=1274\">Scientists Propose \u2018StormWall\u2019 To Stop A $2.4 Trillion Solar Storm<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NOAA is predicting space weather that could impact the northern lights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1280","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
