If you oasis’t heard most the upcoming northern lights yet, we have good news for you! Sky gazers, mark your calendars — there's an increased likelihood of auroras lighting up the sky across 14 states on June 25. Here's all you need to know:
The stream of solar wind from a coronal hole on the Sun is forecast to spark G1 to G2 (Minor to Moderate) geomagnetic storms, leading to aurora lighting up the night sky. As per NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC), the aurora “may become visible over some northern and upper Midwest states from New York to Idaho.”

Watches of this level are not uncommon.
