During Valentine's Day weekend, northern parts of America, including Maine, may have a chance of seeing an aurora. But space weather scientists warn that the chances of this happening are slim.

There's a good chance the northern lights will be visible in the United States on Valentine's Day 2025. Here's why, and where to look for them.

Auroral activity is best seen between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time while at a high vantage point away from light pollution, according to NOAA. If conditions are optimal, the northern lights could be seen as far as 620 miles away.
