SEATTLE – Seattle has a small likelihood of getting a glimpse of the Northern Lights Tuesday night, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center says a geomagnetic storm is possible on Wednesday, but the chance to see the resulting aurora borealis in the U.S. is higher on Tuesday.

A map of the aurora forecast was recently posted to the NOAA website, showing where the Northern Lights will be most visible.

According to the map, Seattle is right next to the “viewline,” which represents the southern-most locations where the aurora may be seen. It will be visible for most of Canada and Alaska, according to the prediction.

On Wednesday night, the intensity of the aurora is not expected to be as big, with the viewline regressing to the northeast corner of Washington state.

The Seattle-area has a “low” chance of seeing the Northern Lights, with the likelihood growing in areas to the north.

The NOAA says the aurora may become visible over some northern and upper Midwest states from New York to Idaho.

This aurora forecast comes after a coronal mass ejection (CME) that happened on Sunday. A CME is defined as the release of plasma and magnetic field from the sun’s corona or outer atmosphere, which can reach Earth in as little as 15–18 hours.

The aurora is often visible just after sunset or just before sunrise, and the best viewing spots being in areas with limited light pollution.

A 30-minute aurora forecast can be found on the NOAA website.

After a very tough loss on Monday night, the Seattle Mariners are now 53-49 and tied for first place in the American League West.

Though have slumped to a 7-12 record in July, and though they have lost a 10.0 game in the American League West, they are still in a tie for first place, and that can’t be ignored.

However, the team’s recent slide could change the tune at the upcoming trade deadline despite that fact, according to Jeff Passan of ESPN.

Passan wrote this on Tuesday for ESPN about the state of the M’s:

Adding — within reason.The Mariners have taken a precipitous fall in recent weeks that could prompt them to reconsider their deadline tack. At one point they were all-in. They still must add. Considering the grim state of their offense — reflected in them placing first baseman Ty France on outright waivers — standing pat would be heresy. They’ve got the best rotation in the AL and a top-5 farm system that some believe is the best in the game. With a representative offense, they could soar. How aggressive they get could depend on the next week, when they’ve got the easiest schedule in baseball: the Angels for two more games, after a series-opening ninth-inning implosion, then the White Sox for three. The ideal situation would be to match up with a team that has under-control bats so if this year goes sideways, not too much prospect capital is spent for naught. But considering the state of the obvious offloaders, finding such a trade partner could prove difficult.

Some Mariners fans on social media have taken Passan’s words as an afront and are bothered that the team could go from “all-in” to “in, within reason” in the span of a month, but it makes sense, doesn’t it?

We have no idea what the Mariners will do this year and we want the Mariners to be good this year – and for subsequent years – so the best way to do that seems to ensure that you are getting players that can help you beyond this current run. Jazz Chisholm Jr., the name we’ve heard most connected to the Mariners, helps in that regard. So does Luis Robert Jr., and so does Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

With the exception of Pete Alonso, most Mariners fans have been out on the idea of a rental player all along, and Passan just confirms that way of thinking from the organization’s standpoint.

Perhaps if the Mariners just start playing better, none of the excess conversation will matter, but that’s a big if.

The Mariners play the Angels again tonight at 6:40 p.m. PT.

When you think of a houseboat, you might picture a small, floating dwelling that contains only the basic necessities for a comfortable life. This is not that kind of houseboat.

Situated in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood, on the tranquil waters of Lake Union, this 4850-square-foot boat home offers everything you’d expect from a big, expensive house — and more.

The property, which was built in 2012 and is listed for $3.6 million, boasts a gourmet kitchen, a sun room, a formal dining room and a breakfast nook that all come with enviable views of the water.

There are also three bathrooms and three bedrooms — one of which is a suite encompassing an entire floor — as well as a home movie theater.

As charming as the home’s warm, woody interior is, it’s the outdoor space that really makes it. Not only can you watch the boats go by from the balcony, but the terrace provides a hosting space with a pretty unbeatable backdrop.
