Residents of Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire might get lucky tonight as well.

The solar flare that launched it was measured as an M3-class flare, which is on the weaker side.

You mayeven see a meteor from a meteor shower.

That flare caused some radio frequency issues but didn’t result in a more active aurora borealis.

If that flare had hit the Earth right, it would’ve driven the aurora borealis much farther south.

Therecent sighting of the northern lights that lit up half the UScame from an X1.8-class flare.

The more powerful and intense the coronal mass ejection is, the more intense the aurora borealis becomes.

How do I see the aurora borealis?

The darker the sky, the better.

The farther north you go, the better your results.
