A strong geomagnetic storm may result in the Aurora Borealis’ colorful display seen across New England skies.

The geomagnetic storm will happen due to a Coronal Mass Ejection — which is a release of the sun’s plasma and magnetic field — into the solar wind on March 28.

The Aurora is expected to be at highest visibility overnight Wednesday into Thursday, weather pending of course. Clouds are in the forecast for our area Wednesday night and Thursday.
