SUMMARY: Recently, there was excitement about the Northern Lights, with many people talking about the strong storm that led to impressive visibility even in southern areas. While some observers needed their phones to see the display, it offered a rare opportunity for a spectacular show. The geomagnetic activity is still present but less intense than the previous night, rated around a 5 on the K index, which diminishes optimal viewing conditions. Those seeking to catch a glimpse of the lights should head to locations far from city lights, particularly in Missouri and Illinois, for the best chance.

Will you be able to see the aurora borealis again tonight? Well, it depends where you are.

SUMMARY: Police arrested a third road worker, Garrett Gibbs, in connection with an assault case involving two of his colleagues. Gibbs initially raised concerns about their arrests after an off-duty police officer allegedly attempted to drive through a work zone and attacked one of the workers. Following the incident, police conducted a search warrant at Gibbs’ family home. The other workers, Matthew Devlin and Hurley, face charges for using racial slurs and physically assaulting the off-duty officer, who claimed he was choked during the altercation. Gibbs maintains that none of the workers are guilty of the crimes charged.

Police arrested a third road worker Thursday in connection with a workzone assault case that the FOX Files first reported on Wednesday. Prosecutors formally filed criminal charges against the three accused road workers on Thursday as well.
