Northern Lights forecast for WNY

There is a chance we could see those beautiful Northern Lights locally, mainly Saturday night.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Saturday night could be the night to see the Northern Lights locally again.

The Space Weather Prediction Center shows a decent viewing opportunity of the Northern Lights locally in Western New York into this weekend, with the Geomagnetic Storm, G-Scale at a level 3 (the range is 0 to 5) for Saturday night, and the K Index at a level 7.  Mainly clear skies here will allow for a good chance for viewing as well!

The lights could glow similar to what we saw in August, and not as powerful as in May.

There is a lower chance for viewing Friday night, also with the clouds in place locally for much of the night.

Go to an area with lower light pollution, and enjoy.
