You might be able to see northern lights glowing over Metro Vancouver this week

Here's when you might see the dancing green lights in local skies.

Locals may have a handful of opportunities to view the northern lights this week thanks to clear skies and stormy solar activity.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 's Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a G-1 minor geomagnetic storm warning for Wednesday, March 15, and Thursday, March 16. The university's online aurora monitor map shows what regions the aurora's green glow will likely reach, as well as other areas where there is less of a possibility. Additionally, there is a brief description below the map of the aurora activity on that particular day. You can switch to other days to see the forecast, too.

Highly active auroral displays may be visible overhead from places up north such as Inuvik and Iqaluit down to Vancouver, Winnipeg, and Thunder Bay in Ontario, as well as places south of the border including Seattle, Chicago, Cleveland, and Boston.
