   Will Michigan see the Northern Lights during a severe geomagnetic storm?

   • Doing so helped many in Metro Detroit capture the Northern Lights during May's severe geomagnetic storm. When the time to see the lights is near, use this 30-minute aurora forecast to see where it is. The entire state of Michigan could see the Northern Lights later this week thanks to a G-4 severe geomagnetic storm watch.

   Why did NOAA issue a severe geomagnetic storm alert?

   When was the last time a severe geomagnetic storm alert was issued?

   • The NOAA last issued a G-4 severe geomagnetic storm alert in May, when the Northern Lights were visible all over the state, including here in Detroit. May was the first time a severe geometric storm watch had been issued since January 2005. Of course, weather is always something to keep an eye on when the aurora is possible.

   What triggered a geomagnetic storm?

   • Rolling in about 6 hours later than predicted, a huge plume of plasma and magnetic field from the sun, known as a coronal mass ejection (CME) slammed into Earth, triggering a severe geomagnetic storm. The CME hit around 7:41 p.m. EDT (2341 GMT) on Sept. 16, triggering a dazzling northern lights display visible as far south as the Texas Panhandle.
