TL;DR Summary

Skygazers in Michigan and 17 other states may have the opportunity to witness the Northern Lights next week, as a solar storm is expected to create colorful displays in the night sky. The 11-year solar cycle, reaching its peak in 2024, is making the lights visible in places farther south than usual. The Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska at Fairbanks has forecast auroral activity on Thursday in several states, including Michigan, as well as in parts of Canada. To experience the aurora, viewers are advised to get away from city lights and the best viewing times are between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time.
