AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Did you look north? If so, you might get a nice view of the northern lights outside city limits in Central Texas, which could be seen by multiple viewers on Thursday. "If you go away from city lights, and point your phone cameras north with a longer exposure, you may pick up the northern lights in South-Central Texas," the National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio said on social media. Some might even be able to see them with the naked eye! A severe geomagnetic storm caused by a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) on the sun are responsible for this rather rare event. Here are some photos sent in from viewers in Rosanky, Lampasas and Lake Buchanan.
