Viewing and Capturing the Northern Lights in North Georgia with Smartphone Tips

Takeaways:

• The Northern Lights are expected to be visible in North Georgia following the arrival of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the sun, with the best viewing times around midnight.

• NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center anticipates G4-G5 geomagnetic storms, which will enhance the visibility of the aurora over the northern half of the United States.

• Clear skies in North Georgia will provide ideal conditions for observing the aurora.

• A guide from FOX 13 Seattle's Managing Editor Kristina Moy and the blog Hello Aurora suggests using a smartphone's Photo mode and screen recording feature to capture the Northern Lights, followed by editing to improve the video.

• For better visibility on smartphones, the use of external apps like NightCap is recommended, and for iPhone 11 Pro or newer, using Night mode with an exposure time of around 10-15 seconds is advised.
