Aurora Borealis Visits Colorado Skies

The Northern Lights Make a Rare Appearance

The aurora borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is a natural light display in the Earth's sky, primarily visible at high latitude regions. It is caused by the interaction of charged particles from the sun with the Earth's magnetic field.

On March 15, 2023, a stunning aurora borealis display was visible in northern Colorado. The sighting was a rare treat, as the Northern Lights are typically only visible in the far northern latitudes.

The aurora borealis was caused by a powerful solar storm that occurred on March 14th. The storm sent a cloud of charged particles towards Earth, which interacted with the Earth's magnetic field and created the aurora borealis.

A Rare and Beautiful Sight

The aurora borealis is a beautiful and awe-inspiring sight. The lights can appear in a variety of colors, including green, red, blue, and purple. They can also change shape and move across the sky.

The aurora borealis is a reminder of the power of nature and the beauty of our planet. It is a sight that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.

The aurora borealis has been seen as low as Alabama and northern California during severe G4 storms in the past.
