The Northern Lights Are Expected Over 15 U.S. States Tonight—Here's Where to Look
A geomagnetic storm could bring a rare aurora borealis display to skies from Alaska to Iowa—here's when and how to see it. Tonight into tomorrow, the night sky may put on a colorful show for skywatchers in several lucky states. On Aug. 18 and Aug. 19, a fast-moving stream of solar wind could spark a geomagnetic storm, potentially lighting up the sky with Northern Lights across 15 U.S. states, according to forecasters from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) and the U.K. Met Office. 'There is an increasing possibility during Monday of minor geomagnetic enhancement due to an arriving fast wind, with the possibility of a Coronal Mass Ejection glance Tuesday into Wednesday,' the UK Met Office stated. Alaska has the highest probability of seeing the northern lights tonight. Other states with a chance to spot the aurora, listed in order of likeliness, include: Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Maine, South Dakota, Vermont, New Hampshire, Idaho, Washington, New York, Wyoming, and Iowa. 'Late on 18 Aug, conditions are likely to increase to active levels followed by G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm levels on 19 Aug. Active conditions are likely on 20 Aug,' NOAA predicts on its website. The aurora is expected to peak between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. from the night of Aug. 18 through the morning of Aug. 19, with the Kp index—which measures geomagnetic activity on a scale of 0 to 9—projected to reach Kp 5 tonight. Currently, a large coronal hole, or open region in the sun's magnetic field, is facing the Earth. This has led to the ejection of a high-speed stream of solar wind toward our planet. When this solar wind interacts with Earth's magnetic field, it increases the likelihood of geomagnetic storms and the possibility of auroral displays. 'Aurora can often be observed somewhere on Earth from just after sunset or just before sunrise. The aurora is not visible during daylight hours. The aurora does not need to be directly overhead but can be observed from as much as 1000 km away when the aurora is bright and if conditions are right,' NOAA's website explains. For those in the potential viewing zones, try to find a north-facing spot with clear view of the horizon and minimal light pollution. There are also several mobile apps that can help track aurora forecasts in real time for the best chance of catching the show. Read the original article on Travel & Leisure Solve the daily Crossword

Southern California firefighters, first responders prepare for elevated fire danger amid sweltering heat
Firefighters and first responders are taking proactive steps as sweltering heat descends on Southern California this week, hoping to gain an advantage over the elevated fire danger. "It's always a worry, especially living here in the foothills," said Barry Shimauchi, who lives in Azusa, at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains. "September, August, things start to dry out and then you get that late kind of heat wave." The incoming heat, which will bring triple-digit temperatures to much of Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside counties, is potentially the worst of the year, leading National Weather Service officials to issue red flag fire conditions for specific areas. In response, the California Office of Emergency Services has also sent extra resources to the area. "This includes fire engines, firefighters, bulldozers, helicopters," said Cal OES State Fire Rescue Chief Brian Marshall. "It gives them a better opportunity to contain the fire when it's small, so we don't have a big disaster." He says that the department has been deploying and prepositioning resources ahead of fire weather events for five years now. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass also announced that extra local resources were being pre-deployed in high-risk areas like Woodland Hills, Northridge and Sunland. "For months, LAFD has been actively conducting brush inspections and brush clearance," Bass said during the news conference. CalOES officials encourage residents to have wildfire action plans ready and to sign up for local emergency alerts.

Coolest day of summer comes to D.C. two days after hot Sunday
It was obviously cool in the capital on Tuesday, but it may not have been so obvious that it was also the coolest day of the entire summer. However, the official high temperature in the District on Tuesday was 73 degrees, and an examination of the figures for every other day here since the summer solstice shows that they all — every one of them — had been warmer than that.
