GREENSBORO, N.C. — There are Northern Lights in the sky on this Thursday evening! It's a rare sight to see them in the Carolinas, but there's enough solar energy to make them visible across much of the country tonight. The WFMY News 2 Weather team is tracking it.

For the second time this year, the northern lights have made it all the way south to the Houston area. Throughout Texas, faint hues of red and pink lights glowing in the night sky Thursday dazzled stargazers across the state.
