In a rare atmospheric happening, Coloradans might get to see the Aurora Borealis from the comfort of their own keggers this weekend.

In a rare atmospheric happening, Coloradans might get to see the Aurora Borealis from the comfort of their own keggers this weekend.

The northern lights, which are clouds of electromagnetic energy that pulse over the Earth's surface, don't usually travel as far south as Colorado, but they heard your party was going to be awesome and wanted to introduce you to their friend Rachel, according to the Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder.

The odds that it'll show up are pretty high, especially for those in the Fort Collins area.

"I do think we do look good for seeing the aurora tonight," said Bob Rutledge, head of the space weather forecast office. "Seeing it in Colorado is certainly possible." Does the man speak like an angel, or does he speak like an angel?

The aurora is caused by solar storms. This week, there were two major solar flares, which transform into multi-colored clouds of electromagnetic energy when they hit the earth's atmosphere … so put that in your knowledge sandwich and eat it.

This is the second time this year that forecasters predicted viewings of the aurora in Colorado — but their predictions fell short the first time, and Coloradans were left with nothing to ooh and ahh at other than the clouds of weed that settle permanently over the state's various pot-friendly cities. Are you peaking yet?

The lights are best seen at night, away from light pollution, so use this weekend fulfill your childhood dream of to driving out into the middle of nowhere and staring at the sky.

Just thought you guys should know. Bye!
