The northern lights, or aurora borealis, are predicted to be visible above 17 U.S. cities next week, including certain parts of Wyoming. The best viewing time is between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time, with clear skies being necessary. Other states that may have a chance to see the lights include Alaska, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Maine, Maryland, New York, New Hampshire, Washington, Vermont, Idaho, and Oregon. The northern lights are caused by the interaction of the sun's charged particles with Earth's atmosphere, creating colorful displays in the night sky.
