ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Chief Meteorologist Eric Snitil confirmed the northern lights came out Monday night! LET THERE BE LIGHT! An absolutely dazzling display of color as the northern lights dance over Lake Ontario. This is an 8-second exposure captured from Webster around 1am this morning. I'm speechless! pic.twitter.com/FXbE2B4ijv— Eric Snitil (@EricSnitilWx) October 8, 2024 A strong G3 storm arrived just in time for clearing over Lake Ontario. This lined up nicely to be able to see the northern lights with the naked eye. While it is best seen through a camera lens that can do a long exposure, it can still be enjoyed.
