BRIDGEPORT, W.Va (WDTV) - The strongest geomagnetic storm since 2005 has occurred that could lead to the chance to see the Northern Lights in NCWV.

Most likely we will only be able to view the aurora on the horizon, but a quick drive up into the mountains of Pennsylvania could lead to better chances for viewing. Peak viewing time will be between 2-5am Saturday. Despite rain showers and cloud cover lingering today.
