The NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center says a solar storm could bring the Northern Lights to the Lower Hudson Valley on New Year's Eve. But with a high chance of rain in the evening, the possibility of seeing the phenomenon could be rare.

The daily aurora forecast reveals parts of Upstate New York may see a colorful display of northern lights if skies are clear, mostly along the fringes of the North Country and the shores of Lake Ontario.

Forecasters from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Space Weather Prediction Center say that geomagnetic storms could result in some parts of the U.S. ringing in the new year under the northern lights.

There could be a chance to see the northern lights in New Hampshire and Maine both tonight and tomorrow as the New Year rings in, according to forecasters. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Space Weather Prediction Center issued an alert Sunday night that the aurora borealis may be visible at high latitudes on Dec.
