The sun has been active over the last few days , prompting solar radiation events, a strong flare event, and now, multiple coronal mass ejections (CMEs) CMEs are explosions of plasma and magnetic material from the sun that can reach Earth in as little as 15 to 18 hours .
The best chance for the northern U.S. to catch the aurora is Monday night .
A G1 storm can make aurora visible in Maine and Michigan ’s Upper Peninsula .
A moderate G2 storm can bring the northern lights slightly southward into New York and Idaho .
More severe geomagnetic storms are rarer, though.
If you live in a southern state such as Florida , Texas , or Hawaii , in addition to a G4 or G5 storm, you’ll also need a few other pieces to align.
