Happy Thursday afternoon from the Northland!
It is a cloudy and at times damp day for the region, but a cold front is passing through.
This will help clear away the clouds and showers, but a west wind will start to cool us down.

Happy Tuesday afternoon from the Northland!
It's another sunny, seasonal, and calm day for the region thanks to a high-pressure system above us.
We will see a slight pattern change the next few days with shower chances.

Happy Sunday afternoon from the Northland!
If you don't mind the wind, you shouldn't have any problems with the weather this past weekend.
It is cooling back to late fall seasonal temperatures.
Overall, nothing to really complain about.

Not the best look due to the other lights, but the Northern Lights are out again across the Northland!
At least I can see them at the station through my phone camera's night vision setting.
It is best to be away from artificial lights to see them with the naked eye.

Thank you to the night vision setting on my phone's camera.
I can enjoy the Northern Lights from my home in Superior, Wisconsin right before bed.
And to think this is just round one...

NORTHERN LIGHTS ALERT:
We are seeing the cloud cover over the Northland clearing from west to east, so the Northern Lights will be visible for most of us over the next several hours.

Happy Tuesday afternoon from the Northland!
The best way to describe the weather today is typical fall. Temperatures are seasonal. We have plenty of cloud cover. Winds are somewhat breezy.
Not much to do but wait for some clearing.
