Solar winds could bring a surprise Thanksgiving-week aurora to photographers in 14 states

The Northern Lights dance over a lake with a faint orange from the sunset on the horizon.

Astrophotographers could be in for some surprise aurora sightings this week if conditions hold. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts solar winds could help bring a G1 solar storm to northern latitudes on November 25 and 26.

The NOAA three-day forecast is dotted with several predictions of KP levels reaching high enough for a G1 geomagnetic storm. A G1 storm is a minor solar storm, but one that could bring potential northern lights sightings to 14 states in the northern US, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Maine, and several others.
