A Geomagnetic Storm Watch continues to be in effect through Monday.
Those who waited up late on Sunday night to see the Perseid meteor shower peak were in for a celestial treat. Space weather caused by charged particles from the Sun produced vivid Northern lights across the Midwest and Northern U.S. NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center issued a G3 Strong Geomagnetic Storm alert on their five-point scale after G3-level storming was observed from a large disturbance in Earth's magnetic field as a coronal mass ejection passed Earth.
Connecticut, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Idaho and North Dakota also saw the colorful dancing lights caused by a barrage of electrons bouncing into Earth's magnetic field. On Sunday night, fainter green and blue Northern Lights could be seen against the horizon in Ahtol, Idaho.Sunday and Monday also marked the peak of one of the year's best meteor showers. Some who saw Northern lights also caught a Perseid meteor or two in their photos.
