🚨🇷🇺Rare Solar Storm Bathes Russia in Northern Lights
Russia witnessed the effects of the largest solar storm in decades.
An aurora borealis was fixed over Russia’s sky with bright green and red colors earlier today.
Visible from Russia’s Far East in Siberia, to the Ural Mountains and North Caucasus, the sky was bathed for its citizens to see.
The rare night-time light show was reportedly spotted in nearby Ukraine, Turkey, Kazakhstan and Georgia, as well as parts of Europe and North America.

🚨🇺🇸NORTHERN LIGHTS ACROSS THE U.S
Want to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights?
Many areas of the United States will experience the first solar storm in decades.
Tips for spotting the best Aurora:
Best View—in high-latitude regions with no cloud cover.
Best Time—an hour or two at midnight.
Best Visibility—depending on location and the exact timing of the storm system.
NOAA: “Auroras could be visible through the weekend.”
