Mother Nature Adds an Extraordinarily Gorgeous Northern Light Show To This Autumn's Color Season!

A spectacular northern lights show extended far south across the sky over the U.S. Monday evening, October 24th 2011. After Mom Nature did her usual beautiful leaf painting this autumn, she added a big bonus by painting the sky with vivid brilliant reds and greens with a teal shade. Just take a look at this picture (compliment of Lake Superior Photo) of the heavens on Monday night October 24th, 2011!


This shows the sun is active with solar activity and the number of solar flares is on the increase the past few years as we climb up the new solar cycle. I talk more about the controversy of solar cycles affecting the weather on the planet in the Winter Outlook.

In the meantime, see Northern Lights from the AP for more information on this event.
