Northern lights could dazzle the skies over 15 U.S. States tonight (May 30) and into the weekend as active geomagnetic conditions may push auroras farther south than usual, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Earth is currently being buffeted by high-speed solar wind, which is putting pressure on our planet's magnetic field and fueling the storm — excellent news for anyone hoping to catch a glimpse of the northern lights.

While space weather forecasters are currently predicting minor G1 geomagnetic storm conditions over the next few days, things can change quickly. Just days ago, a surprise G3 storm on May 28 triggered auroras in 17 U.S. States and even as far south as Italy. That G3 storm had originally been forecast to only reach G1 levels.

The NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center predicts that the Kp index will peak at 4.67 over the weekend. For an up-to-date breakdown of timings, check out NOAA's 3-day forecast. (Kp is a measurement of geomagnetic activity, with an index that ranges from 0 to 9; higher Kp indicates stronger auroral activity.)

Aurora chasers, get your fingers crossed, your cameras charged and your eyes firmly fixed on the skies! You can also keep up with the latest forecasts and geomagnetic storm warnings with our aurora forecast live blog.

Alaska has the highest chance of seeing the northern lights tonight and over the weekend. If G1 storm levels are reached, auroras could be visible at high-latitude states, including Michigan and Maine, according to NOAA.

Below, we have listed all 15 states that appear either fully or in part above the possible view line for auroras according to NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center. They are ordered most likely to least likely based on their proximity to the auroral oval's center and how much of each state is within or near the view line.
