Northern Lights seen over Mississippi
SUMMARY: Recently, central Mississippi experienced a rare display of the Northern Lights, visible further south than usual due to a strong geomagnetic storm, the most intense in over two decades. The vibrant colors resulted from solar energy impacting Earth’s magnetic field, creating beautiful visuals in the sky. This phenomenon can disrupt power and radio signals. Many enjoyed the view under clear skies and cool temperatures from 10 PM last night until early this morning. This event, occurring twice in six months, was also seen in locations like Connecticut and New Jersey, making it a memorable experience for observers.
