The National Oceanic and Atmosphere Administration advises that increased Geomagnetic Storm activity could allow some to see a light show while also impacted some infrastructure.
According to a NOAA release, the storm will disrupt the Earth's Magnetic Field which will among other things, intensify the Northern Lights, though the cloudy and rainy forecast in the Lakes Region will make viewing of the lights difficult.
Meanwhile, the release also mentions some possible technological impacts including disruptions of some satellite operations which could impact some GPS Systems and some Emergency Communications. Power Grids may also be at risk for some disruptions.
While these storms are not uncommon, the intensity is stronger than normal after a Coronal Mass Ejection from the Sun on Friday is causing a higher disruption than normal in the atmosphere. The effects are expected to subside by Monday according to NOAA.
