Aurora Borealis Forecast for the USA Tonight (Nov. 12, 2025): G4 Watch, Best Times, and States Most Likely to See the Northern Lights

A fresh surge of solar energy is primed to extend the Northern Lights show across parts of the United States tonight, Wednesday, November 12, 2025. NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) has a G4 (Severe) geomagnetic storm watch in effect for today, following multiple coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the Sun. G4 conditions were already reached overnight and forecasters say additional impacts are likely into tonight as another fast CME sweeps past Earth.

Northern Lights Alert: Rare Aurora Could Dazzle Skies Over 15 States Tonight (Aug 19, 2025)

Northern Lights Alert: Rare Aurora Could Dazzle Skies Over 15 States Tonight (Aug 19, 2025)

A G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm is forecast for Aug 19, 2025 with Kp expected to reach 5, potentially making the aurora visible in at least 15 U.S. states. NOAA SWPC predicts auroras could be seen from Alaska across the Pacific Northwest to the Upper Midwest and New England, possibly including Iowa and northern Illinois. The peak viewing window is expected overnight Aug 19, roughly 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. EDT (0300–0900 UTC). The event is driven by a large coronal hole emitting a high-speed solar wind toward Earth, with a possible glancing-blow CME arriving around Aug 19–20. The Moon is

Sky‑Spectacle Alert: Rare Northern Lights Could Paint U.S. Skies Tonight—Here’s the Science, the Map and the Expert Warnings You Need

Sky‑Spectacle Alert: Rare Northern Lights Could Paint U.S. Skies Tonight—Here’s the Science, the Map and the Expert Warnings You Need

A coronal-hole high-speed stream traveling at about 750 km/s is slamming Earth’s magnetosphere and has prompted NOAA to issue a G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic-storm watch for 24–25 June 2025. The storm could push aurora visibility as far south as Illinois, Ohio, and New York on the night of 24–25 June 2025. The disturbance already produced vivid green and magenta curtains seen from Texas to Alberta earlier this month. NOAA SWPC reported K-index values of 4 late Monday, indicating active conditions likely to produce auroras in the northern tier of the United States. Updated view-line maps show the aurora oval dipping into

Sky‑Spectacle Tonight: 15 U.S. States Could Witness a Rare Aurora Outburst—Everything You Must Know Before Sunset

A large negative-polarity coronal-hole high-speed stream (CH HSS) has been rotating into Earth’s line of sight since 23 June, prompting NOAA SWPC to issue a G2 geomagnetic-storm outlook for 25–26 June UTC. Solar wind gusts exceeding 600 km/s are expected, with the planetary K-index (Kp) peaking near 5–6. Solar Cycle 25 is nearing its predicted maximum in mid-2025, following multiple strong flares including an X-class event captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory on 17 June. Forbes identifies a 15-state ‘Aurora Alert’ zone spanning Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Maine, Michigan, Wisconsin, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Idaho, South

Sky‑Spectacle Alert: 15 U.S. States Could See the Northern Lights Tonight—Everything You Must Know Before You Look Up

The 24–25 June 2025 event is forecast to reach G1–G2 geomagnetic storming with a peak Kp of 5.67. NOAA SWPC’s 3‑Day Forecast issued on 24 June projects storming for 25–26 June. Up to 14–15 states could see auroras, from Alaska and Washington to New York and South Dakota. A large equatorial coronal hole rotated into the Earth-facing solar disk on 22–23 June, driving a 500 km/s solar wind. This fast solar wind is expected to reach Earth about 2–3 days later, triggering G1–G2 storming. Aurora Viewline maps place the southern visibility limit through northern Oregon, Idaho, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan,
