"Northern Lights Forecast: Millions in Northern States Could Witness Dazzling Aurora Borealis Display"

Millions of people in the northern US and the Midwest could potentially witness the dazzling Northern Lights from Monday to Wednesday if the clouds clear away, as a geomagnetic storm watch was issued due to a solar material eruption. The lights may be visible in cities such as Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Boise, Lincoln, and Indianapolis. The auroras, also known as aurora borealis, are caused by solar winds hitting the Earth's atmosphere and are most frequently seen in Alaska, Canada, and parts of Scandinavia. The lights pose no risk to the public and are forecasted to be a moderate storm, with updates available on the Space Weather Prediction Center's webpage.
