The aurora will be most easily seen in Alaska, Montana, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota, Washington, Wisconsin, Michigan, northern Maine, some parts of northern New York, and Canada’s southernmost territories.

So when can you see the aurora? The lights will be brightest between midnight on September 11 until about 6 a.m. on Wednesday, September 12. However, people in the northern states may be able to see the lights until Thursday.
