GALLERY: Northern Lights dazzle the Big Country

BIG COUNTRY, Texas ( KTAB/KRBC ) – Last week, residents across the Big Country were treated to the rare and awe-inspiring sight of the Northern Lights. While some ventured to scenic spots like Fort Phantom Hill for a clearer view, others were lucky enough to witness the spectacle from the comfort of their own backyards. A powerful geomagnetic storm made the stunning display of the Aurora Borealis possible, and here are some photos from the event:
