SEATTLE — It’s been one year since the impressive aurora borealis show lit up the sky in all of the lower 48 states. On the night of May 10-11, 2024, the colorful northern lights were sighted as far south as islands in the tropical Pacific. Space experts say more dazzling shows could be ahead this summer as the peak solar activity continues as part of the sun's natural cycle.

SEATTLE — The next few nights we’re going to see a parade of planets just after sunset. All seven of the other planets will be in the sky for a short time after sunset. You may recall that we had six planets in the sky at one time during the evenings in late January, but this time we will have all seven planets. From the Earth’s perspective, the other planets are all on the same side of the sun and are visible shortly after sunset.

SEATAC, Wash. — This month could end up being one of the driest Januarys in 80 years, according to the KING 5 Weather team. So far in January 2025, just 1.04 inches of rain has fallen. Normally, nearly 4 inches have fallen by this point. If no more rain falls this month, it will end up being the third-driest January in 80 years at the Sea-Tac station. However, there is a chance of a small amount of rain late Thursday into Friday of this week, though it will be a light amount.

SEATTLE — Unfortunately, it's unlikely that the Northern Lights will be visible in Washington on Tuesday and Wednesday, despite a geomagnetic storm. The "view line," or the farthest south people may see aurora borealis is just into the northern counties of western Washington on both Tuesday and Wednesday, but no significant aurorae are expected either night.
