Though nothing seemed to appear in Casper (believe us- we spent 3 hours looking), the National Weather Service in Riverton as well as a resident of Cody, Wyoming have shared a few photos of Aurora Borealis, otherwise known as the Northern Lights.
The Northern Lights didn't quite make it to our part of Wyoming last weekend, but they didn't miss by much. New video shows the aurora borealis appeared in the sky as far south as the middle of Montana.
The Northern Lights aren't visible over Wyoming very often. This moment was that exception. A photographer captured an absolutely mesmerizing video of this phenomenon and virtually no one has seen it...until now.
The aurora borealis danced over Casper this past weekend. Thankfully someone had their eyes (and camera) pointed to the skies to capture this stellar event.
On the heels of the eclipse of 2017, Wyoming has another reason to look up. The Northern Lights may be visible further south than usual for a couple of nights.
Be sure to watch for the northern lights if you are out and about during the late night and early morning hours this week as NOAA has issued a magnetic storm watch.
