See the colorful sights as Northern Lights appear in the Chicago area

The colorful shine of Northern Lights was visible in the Chicago area Tuesday evening amid a powerful geomagnetic storm.

Around 7:20 p.m. Tuesday, Northern Lights were visible in Gilberts and Wheaton.

    The visibility is thanks to a powerful solar flare and Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) that erupted from the sun early Tuesday morning, according to the NBC 5 Storm Team.

    After Tuesday, Chicago-area residents have another chance to see the Northern Lights Wednesday.
