If you missed the incredible light show from Mother Nature last night, you\u2019re in luck. The aurora borealis, or northern lights, may be visible again tonight, November 12, and it could be an even more spectacular show. So charge up those cameras.<\/p>\n

The northern lights made a rare appearance on November 11 with sightings reported as far south as Alabama and Florida, and as far northeast as New Jersey and Pennsylvania. If you didn\u2019t stay up, or are heading out again to chase the aurora, you\u2019ll have another chance tonight to see the sky aglow in dancing streams of color.<\/p>\n

NOAA\u2019s Space Weather Prediction Center<\/a> reported in an updated forecast that another storm is on its way that could make for just as good of a show as last night. Based on the latest NOAA aurora forecast map<\/a>, these 17\u00a0 states<\/a> appear fully or partially above the aurora view line.<\/p>\n

The northern lights photos from around the U.S. this week blew our minds. Check out our favorites of the aurora from across the country.<\/p>\n

The aurora borealis lit up the sky over Nubble Lighthouse in York, Maine last night. \u201cThis was a much stronger geomagnetic storm than I experienced a little over a year ago. The colors were super vibrant and clearly visible to the naked eye.\u201d (Photo: 617images.com @617images)<\/p>\n

\u201cMassive red overhead aurora raining down from the sky during yesterday\u2019s severe G4 solar storm produced some of the best northern lights that I have ever seen in my entire life. The sky was filled with an intense red corona, and the aurora spread in every direction.\u201d (Photo: Tucker Olson @tuckolson)<\/p>\n

Northern lights in San Diego? \u201cA bit late to the party, I started my shoot at 10 P.M. hoping to capture the lights glowing above one of my favorite places in the world. Car camping and all, I managed that and even got lucky with a lunar halo, with the aurora dancing on either side as the moon rose.\u201d (Photo: Stan Moniz)<\/p>\n

\"BrandonPictured are the northern lights over Lake Nottely, Georgia, on Tuesday night. \u201cI couldn\u2019t believe what I was seeing with the naked eye, but the long exposures off the camera were even more jaw-dropping. The fog across the surface of the lake that I illuminated with a flashlight during some of the long exposure photos made for some otherworldly scenes.\u201d (Photo: Brandon Montgomery)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Another incredible light show is excepted to shine across the U.S. tonight.
