Solar Tan Gone Wild: Northern Lights Crash Texas BBQs
This week, the northern lights went rogue, storming skies from Indiana's cornfields to Petaluma's stoner paradise in California, making Texas, Alabama, and Florida wish they checked their solar alerts. NOAA grimly announced G4 geomagnetic freakoutsâeight times stronger than your grandma's heart rate when she misplaces her walletâon Nov. 11-13, all thanks to the Sun blowing off coronal mass ejections like a cosmic diva in Heilongjiang, China. Forecaster Shawn Dahl served the tea on X, flexing that even Monroe, Wisconsin, witnessed more solar drama than a Netflix true crime doc. Spectators in Morris County, New Jersey RSVP'd to the sky's wild light party, proof the cosmos is low-key savage this November.

Congrats Sun, you just upstaged every scrolling Texan BBQ, turning their brisket pit stops into impromptu aurora discos. G4 storm? More like Sun flex. Weather apps just installed panic mode.
Forget moonlit beach walks, Mother Nature's throwing solar tantrums so hardcore that Wisconsin and California are now competing for best light show, spoiler: the Sun's winning the popularity contest by a mile.
If the Sun had a nightlife, itâd be dropping G4 geomagnetic storms like surprise album dropsâleaving Michiganders and New Jerseyans all confused if theyâre stargazing or accidentally on a rave.
