The northern lights — also called aurora borealis — could be visible in Alaska, Washington, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan, Maine, northern parts of Idaho, Wyoming, Iowa, New York, Vermont and New Hampshire.

Several states will likely be able to view the northern lights on Monday night due to a unique atmospheric phenomenon. A coronal mass ejection from the sun resulted in a Sunday storm alert, followed by another one that will hit Earth on Monday.

The northern lights are expected to put on a breathtaking show over parts of the U.S. Sunday night due to a powerful geomagnetic storm hitting Earth.
