Look to the sky tonight, Michiganders!
The Northern Lights, also known as the Northern Lights, are a stunning natural phenomenon that can be seen tonight in metro Detroit and throughout Michigan, under the right conditions. Photographers across the state have captured mesmerizing images showcasing the beauty of this celestial event.
Although traditionally associated with regions closer to the Arctic Circle, such as Scandinavia and Alaska, the Northern Lights have been observed in Michigan due to strong geomagnetic storms.
These colorful reflections of light in the night sky are caused by the interaction of solar particles with the Earth’s magnetic field. Photos of them often feature vibrant hues of green, pink and purple, creating a breathtaking spectacle for those lucky enough to witness them.
Below are some of the best photos of the Northern Lights taken Friday evening in metro Detroit and elsewhere around the state.
