JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - The prospects for seeing the Northern Lights from Johnson City, Tennessee, this weekend and tonight are influenced by space weather conditions and geographical location. Despite increased solar activity and a forecast for severe geomagnetic storms on May 12 and 13, which could lead to more visible auroras even at lower latitudes, Johnson City was unlikely to experience the Northern Lights. The city, situated far south of the usual aurora visibility zones, would need a powerful solar storm, akin to the Carrington Event of 1859, to have a visible aurora​ (NOAA SWPC)​​ (NOAA SWPC)​​ (Aurora Forecast for Canada's North)​. That said, the auroras were visible in the Tri-Cities last night and may be visible again tonight, Saturday, May 11, from 10 pm - 2 am Sunday.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

Grabbing a donut, muffin, bagel, or coffee on your way to or from work can be a nice way to give yourself a sweet treat or pick me up without spending much money. Unfortunately, a Florida restaurant in this genre was recently closed down. I frequently write about restaurant closures, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a violation like the one that caused the closure.

When homes are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it usually means there will be an intended purpose to keep the structure alive whether it’s through historic restoration, repurposing, or general maintenance. Sometimes, too, these places get demolished.

Two much anticipated safe outdoor parking spaces for people experiencing homelessness in Denver won’t be opening after all. A contract with Colorado Safe Parking Initiative will become final at Tuesday’s Mayor-City Council meeting. The new contract removes the requirement for the initiative to add two more lots serving a total of 16 vehicles. That leaves just two lots that the initiative already operates. The city will pay $350,000 for the initiative to operate the lots.

It's no secret that in 2023, Florida lost 41 Bed, Bath, and Beyond stores when the retailer filed for bankruptcy and shuttered stores. Often, the closing Bed, Bath and Beyond stores were anchor stores, which meant their absence left a huge void in some of Florida's shopping centers.
