A large portion of the U.S. will likely see increased Northern Lights activity Friday night and throughout the weekend. But what about Florida? According to one forecast, there's a chance. On Thursday, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Space Weather Prediction Center (NOAA SWPC) issued a G4 watch, something that reportedly hasn't happened since 2005. This means a severe Geomagnetic Storm could happen in Earth's atmosphere due to the anticipated highly-elevated geomagnetic activity. This rare watch is in effect after several coronal mass ejections (CMEs) erupted from the Sun. These CMEs are expected to reach Earth, causing increased geomagnetic activity. In turn, that solar wind and storm activity results in the aurora borealis, aka the Northern Lights.
