Yes, New York, Pennsylvania, and parts of the US Midwest could see a rare spectacular aurora borealis light show tonight, based on the forecasts.
Map may or may not be accurate
Seattle, New York, Pittsburgh, and Washington might see a display of the northern lights after sunset. At least that's what some forecasting models are saying. Thanks to a big solar flare that left the Sun Thursday, Accuweather.com is generating some buzz online by predicting a "dazzling" light show tonight: "The flare is also expected to cause vibrant northern lights from the Arctic as far south as New York, the Dakotas, Washington and Michigan, with a smaller possibility of it going into Pennsylvania and Iowa, even Kansas. The lights are currently estimated for 8 p.m. EDT Saturday arrival, with a possible deviation of up to seven hours. If the radiation hits much after dark settles on the East Coast the lights may be missed and will instead only be visible for the West."

My daughter and I were sitting outside waiting to see if we could see anything and I said, I see nothing but the stars and the moon. So I came in the house, I told my daughter if you see anything let me know... Then I told her it helps if you look North and not South.. LMAO

Well if anything happened I didn't see it... I couldn't stay up to long enough if it happened after midnight. It definitely would have been something cool to see. IDK
