The northern lights were spotted across parts of the northern tier on Monday. Another chance to see them will occur on Tuesday night.

Sky watchers across parts of the country's northern tier were treated to a celestial treat on Monday night as aurora were visible. The colors were even brighter across the higher latitudes.

The effects of the G-3 geomagnetic storm that occurred on Labor Day will persist into tonight, meaning it will still be possible to spot the aurora borealis across the northern tier.

You'll want to have a clear view of the northern horizon. The Northern Lights will be visible as soon as the sun sets. Check out sunset times with our astro card, and keep an eye on visibility with the WeatherRadar.

Super Typhoon Bavi threatens Taiwan. 155 mph winds. . Weather Videos. Wednesday, July 8, 2026
The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
