Much of the Greater Boston area, and other parts of New England, were expected to have clear skies Thursday, allowing the northern lights to be seen

Scroll down to see what the National Weather Service and Space Weather Prediction Center are saying about the aurora forecast Thursday night, as well as how to get a good picturefor Thursday into Friday.

The G4 Watch remains in effect for 11 Oct and all applicable warnings remain in place.
