It's easy to get lost in our state's beauty, but soon you'll be able to see one of nature's most amazing wonders from right here in the Garden State.

Could you imagine sitting on the beach, the sound of the waves crashing behind you, and looking up to see the dancing magical colors of the Northern Lights?

Only In Your State reports that there's no guarantee we'll see the lights since it's all based on atmospheric conditions.

However, you will likely have the best chances the further North you travel in Jersey.
