Northern lights

It’s hard not to consider humankind’s own future in this region-unspecified, newly aquatic land where mountaintops are islands, northern lights dazzle and finger-like towers that seem man-made dot the background.

The aurora faux pas comes just a couple of weeks after the real Northern Lights were once again spotted across the UK, following a similar sight back in May.

I’m a meteorologist who lives in Minnesota, unequivocally one of the best places to see the northern lights without having to travel to Alaska or Iceland or freaking Svalbard.

When I first moved here, about 10 years ago, I thought I was gonna love seeing the northern lights.

If it seems to you that the northern lights have been in the news a lot lately, that’s because they have.
