    ShareATLANTA — Skygazers across north Georgia were treated with a rare sight of the northern lights on Thursday - our second glimpse of it this year! Aurora borealis is not typically visible so far south. A coronal ejection from the sun just a few days ago sent energy to the earth. It disturbs the magnetic field, allowing the northern lights to stretch further southward.

    ATLANTA — Temperatures are heating up as we approach the official start of summer on June 20, and our first heatwave of the season is expected later this week.   The National Weather Service issues heat alerts when temperatures are forecast to reach dangerous levels. A Heat Advisory is issued when 'feels like' temperatures are expected to reach or be greater than 103 degrees or when the actual air temperature is expected to be 105 degrees or greater.

    The Starlink satellites have been visible in the sky the last couple of nights, and there will be two more good opportunities this week to see the train of lights. Starlink is a satellite network developed by pioneering private spaceflight company SpaceX, owned by Elon Musk.  A large fleet of Starlink satellites orbits the earth, providing internet coverage across the globe. On a clear night and with minimal light pollution, people may be able to catch a glimpse of the satellites in orbit.
