US EditionNorthern Lights Forecast: 10 States Might See Aurora Borealis Tonight
- NOAA issued a northern lights forecast for Thursday, May 29, predicting aurora visibility toward the northern horizon in several U.S. States and Canada.
- This forecast follows ongoing geomagnetic storms linked to solar wind from a coronal hole, occurring during the current solar maximum expected through early 2026.
- Auroral activity is expected to reach its highest intensity late in the evening and into the early morning hours, with the most vivid displays likely over northern Canada and Alaska, while visibility will be more limited in some northern regions of the United States.
- NOAA assigned a geomagnetic storm level of G3 early Thursday, with a Kp index forecast of up to six indicating auroras may extend farther south than usual, and minor radio blackouts possible.
- The solar maximum will likely provide further northern lights viewing opportunities over coming months while posing slight risks to satellites and power grids without major disruptions.
