The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) forecasts that the aurora borealis will be visible in some northern U.S. states on Monday night, with a Kp index of 3, indicating moderate auroral activity. The visibility is expected to improve on Tuesday night with a Kp index of 4, potentially allowing more states to view the northern lights. The best viewing times are between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time. This increased auroral activity is due to the sun's current solar maximum phase, which is part of its 11-year cycle.
