The Metro 麻豆传媒映画weather forecast includes possible aurora borealis viewing opportunities this week.
While some showers are possible, conditions look mostly dry and the sun peeked out in the Lower Mainland in the afternoon on Tuesday, Sept. 10.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a G2 (Moderate) for Tuesday, with lingering effects into Wednesday. However, any residual storm effects are expected to taper off into "minor storming levels" by Wednesday.
The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) calls for " on Tuesday, with displays visible "overhead from Inuvik, Yellowknife, Rankin, and Iqaluit to Vancouver, Helena, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Bay City, Toronto, Montpelier, and Charlottetown, and visible low on the horizon from Salem, Boise, Cheyenne, Lincoln, Indianapolis and Annapolis" (see slide two).
Locals could be treated to auroral displays overhead (instead of just low on the horizon) given the expected reach of the phenomenon.
The university's online aurora monitor map shows what regions the aurora's green glow will likely reach and other areas where it is less likely. Additionally, there is a brief description below the map of the aurora activity on that particular day. You can switch to other days to see the forecast, too.
NOAA also expects the aurora to be visible south of the border to some northern and upper Midwest from New York to Idaho.
