The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration projected moderate geomagnetic storming throughout the weekend, likely producing northern lights displays.

If you find yourself in one of the 18 states listed above (or simply want to try your luck) head to a dark, north-facing spot away from city lights. As we approach the summer solstice on June 20/21, nights are growing shorter, so your best window for viewing may be in the early morning hours, around 1 to 2 a.m.

Residents in northern Michigan are within the aurora borealis viewline this weekend, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says, following a geomagnetic storm watch for areas in the Midwest.
