"Northern lights, known for glowing red and green colors, could be visible this week across northern US"

If you live across portions of the northern U.S., keep your eyes to the sky over the next few nights: Barring pesky clouds, you might catch a peek of the northern lights, aka the aurora borealis. According to SpaceWeather.c om, auroras could be sighted in northern-tier U.S. states from Maine to Montana to Washington this week. The colorful event is courtesy of a solar flare, which erupted out of a sunspot Monday. A coronal mass ejection – a burst of plasma from the sun – was also heading toward the Earth, and it arrived early Thursday. NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center said that the coronal mass ejection began interacting with the Earth's magnetic field early Thursday. The electromagneti c storm was expected to grow to major status Thursday, extending the area where the northern lights are visible. So Thursday night might end up being the best night to see the northern lights.
