Helena, MT – Montanans are in for a visual spectacle as the northern lights are expected to illuminate the skies tonight and tomorrow. A geomagnetic storm is pushing the aurora borealis into southern latitudes, giving residents a chance to witness the rare light show.
The Space Weather Prediction Center forecasts the best viewing in northern Montana, with cities like Great Falls and Glacier National Park offering ideal spots. Clear skies will further enhance the visibility.
According to experts, the optimal viewing time will be between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. Stargazers should find rural, dark areas to avoid light pollution and catch the full beauty of the northern lights.
Montanans can expect vibrant displays of green, red, and purple hues across the sky tonight and tomorrow.
