That's right, according to a few news sites online, we MIGHT be able to see the northern lights tonight! Usually they are seen in the North Pole, Alaska, Canada, and Russia, but they might reach farther south tonight.
According to one article, it might happen around midnight, however a different article said any time between sunset and sunrise. A different article said that it might happen again on Friday night. I found a link to the "Northern Lights Forecast," but so many people are trying to find out about it today that the site crashed! That link is here:

At the time of writing, I'm not sure if we'll be able to see this amazing phenomenon (it seems that the sky is too cloudy to even see stars). However if you DO see it, tell us about it during Morning Meeting!
