Australia may experience an aurora in the coming days, causing the skies to glow.
A breathtaking display of aurora is set to illuminate the Australian night skies in the upcoming days. As reported by the Bureau of Meteorology, a surge in solar activity is expected to bring about the mesmerizing aurora australis, also known as the southern lights, on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings. This phenomenon is caused by strong solar winds interacting with the earth's magnetic field and creating a stunning visual display in the sky.

According to Associate Professor Michael Brown from Monash School of Physics and Astronomy, it is difficult to predict the exact brightness and timing of the aurora. He explained that the recent heightened activity of the sun could lead to a remarkable display, but it is uncertain when it will occur. However, for those eager to witness this natural wonder, there are social media accounts dedicated to spotting and sharing updates about the aurora's visibility in different parts of Australia.

For the best viewing experience, it is recommended to find a location with minimal light pollution, such as a dark beach or a hill with a clear view of the southern horizon. Brown also suggested using a mobile phone to capture the aurora, as it can bring out colors and details that may not be visible to the naked eye. The southern lights are most commonly seen in southern parts of Australia, including south-east Victoria and Tasmania.

In addition to the anticipated aurora in Australia, North America is also expected to witness colorful geomagnetic storms this week. Areas such as Alabama and northern California are projected to experience a visible solar flare.
