There is a high chance that 11 states will see a particularly vibrant display of the Northern Lights tonight (July 3). The NOAA is predicting that Alaska, Idaho, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Washington, and Wisconsin will see an Aurora with a KP index of four tonight. The northernmost part of New York is also in the view line. According to NOAA, A KP four rating means that “the aurora will move further from the poles” and “become brighter.” There will also “be more auroral activity,” and it “can be quite pleasing to look at.” The Northern Lights are typically best viewed between 10 pm and 2 am, but smartphone apps like My Aurora Forecast will help you hone in on the best times in your area. Why Have The Northern Lights Been So Active In 2024? Unless you live in extreme northern states or countries, the Northern Lights are usually a rare sight. This year, they have been common. And it’s all because of the sun’s normal 11-year cycle. As SDSU explains, the sun’s current cycle began in 2019. Geomagnetic storms, which cause the Northern Lights, will increase in frequency and intensity as the sun approaches solar maximum in 2025. When it reaches its peak around July 2025, the auroras will be most common and brilliant. Then, the storms will become less frequent as the cycle nears solar minimum. NASA shared that the July peak is only a prediction, however. It could actually happen anytime between late 2024 and early 2026. Hopefully, we’ll have a more exact Northern Lights forecast in the near future, though. Last week, NOAA and NASA sent a new satellite into space that should help keep a better eye on the solar activity. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

Zenless Zone Zero features a choice between two protagonists just like other Hoyoverse gacha games, but there’s a unique twist this time around. The opening of the game lets you choose between two siblings — Belle and Wise — so it’s a similar setup to Genshin Impact with Aether and Lumine. Zenless Zone Zero does things differently, though, so the choice isn’t as big as you might think. Belle vs Wise Differences in ZZZ Explained Screenshot: PC Invasion You should choose whichever of the siblings you like more. Pay particular attention to their designs and especially their voice acting, since those are the biggest differences between the two. Unlike other Hoyoverse games, both Wise and Belle are involved in the main story from the beginning regardless of who you pick. The sibling that you choose as the main character will be the one you control during exploration segments in between missions, while the other will act in a support role and hang out at...

Zenless Zone Zero is an action-focused game, but that doesn’t mean it has to be hard. There are two difficulty modes available for the main story of ZZZ — casual mode and challenge mode — but the differences between the two aren’t very clear to new players. You’re given the choice between casual mode and challenge mode at the start of the very first mission in Zenless Zone Zero, so there isn’t much of an opportunity to get a feel for the mechanics and combat system before you have to make a decision. While they may just seem like the standard easy and hard modes that you’ve seen in other video games, it’s not quite that simple. ZZZ Casual vs Challenge Mode Differences and Rewards Firstly, there are no differences in rewards between casual mode and challenge mode in Zenless Zone Zero. No matter which difficulty setting you choose, you will still receive the same amount of resources and rewards. Playing on challenge mode will not net you a...

Zenless Zone Zero has multiple characters, all with one of five Specialties, but what does this exactly mean? We’ll explain the differences between each Specialty and how they change the characters’ playstyles. All Specialties in Zenless Zone Zero, explained There are five Specialties in Zenless Zone Zero that act similarly to classes, which are Attack, Defense, Support, Stun, and Anomaly. A Specialty determines the character’s build and combat duties which makes it easier to create decent team comps. Let’s go over each Speciality and how they work. Attack Specialty Agents with the Attack Specialty possess formidable damage capabilities and excel at rapidly racking up damage through direct attacks, allowing combat to come to an end quickly. These Agents typically excel in the ATK stat and there are more Attack Agents than any other Speciality, with seven available for your roster.
