Washington, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, as well as parts of Idaho and South Dakota, appear within the low-to-medium range of NOAA's predicted "view line," which represents "the southern-most locations from which you may see the aurora on the northern horizon."

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.
