Look Up On Tuesday for Northern Lights in Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin

If you get to a spot in Minnesota, Iowa, or Wisconsin that is away from city lights, there is a chance you could see the Northern Lights on Tuesday, February 28th!

According to NOAA.gov, there is a chance that parts of Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin will get to see the gorgeous multi-colored lights in the sky on Tuesday.  Actually, it sounds like we've had a chance the last few nights thanks to a "geomagnetic storm".

I did sneak into a few meteorology classes at Iowa State University back in the day but I am not a meteorologist so I don't know what that even means.  But, the experts do and I'm thankful for the photo that was posted on the Space Weather Prediction Center for NOAA.  The picture shows me that there is a chance Tuesday to see the Northern Lights and that makes my heart happy because seeing this phenomenon is on my bucket list!

What's on your bucket list?

What is one thing that you'd like to do or see?  As you know, one of mine is the Northern Lights.  I also want to go to Hawaii and Bora Bora though.  I am going to have to wait a bit for those dreams but that's why we have a bucket list, so we can visualize what we want to do and cross it off when we make it happen.
