TONIGHT👀 It's incredibly rare to see the northern lights in Arkansas once, much less two nights in a row... But it's possible!

The planetary K values briefly reached 8.5 last night when we saw the lights here in Arkansas... They're expected to reach 7-8 tonight! We'll keep you updated. #ARwx

UPDATE: As you've probably noticed... The northern lights are being viewed across a good chunk of the US, including right here in Arkansas!

Here's an updated visibility map, based off of what's being reported. We'd love to see your pics!
