TL;DR Summary

Northern lights were visible across many areas of Maine and New England, as well as in far southern reaches of New Hampshire, late Thursday night into early Friday morning. The intense aurorae may have been triggered by one or more coronal mass ejections (CME) nearly missing the Earth. The best time to look for the aurora borealis is between 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. Skywatchers should look north and get away from city lights.
