More geomagnetic storm conditions are forecast for later in the week, pulling the aurora borealis farther south, though some states will likely have an earlier chance to see the phenomenon Thursday, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Attention aurora chasers! Powerful geomagnetic storm conditions could trigger northern lights at mid-latitudes tonight as a coronal mass ejection impact is imminent.

FOX Weather says the cloud-cover forecast is favorable across much of the U.S, including the South, though the lights will likely be the brightest in northern states like Washington and Michigan. The Midwest and Mid-Atlantic could also be good places to see the aurora, but the desert Southwest and the Northeast are expected to be cloudy.
