"Upcoming Solar Activity May Illuminate Northern Skies"
TL;DR Summary
Western North Carolina residents may have another chance to see the northern lights in early June, as the sunspot responsible for the May 10-11 auroras will face Earth again. While no strong storms are currently predicted, increased solar activity makes it possible for auroras to be visible in the area. Keep an eye on NOAA's Space Prediction Center for short-term forecasts.
