A coronal mass ejection earlier this week may pull the northern lights to more northern U.S. states, forecasters said.

The northern lights should continue well into the weekend and may even reach down into the middle parts of the US.

Aurora chasers are on high alert for minor geomagnetic storm conditions from Jan. 24 through to Jan. 25. Northern lights might be visible over some northern and upper Midwest states.

Sky gazers in several U.S. states could get a colorful glimpse of the northern lights as we enter the weekend, thanks to a recent geomagnetic storm.

Although less likely, viewers in South Dakota, Michigan, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine may also see the aurora ... bursts of energy called coronal mass ejections.

The sun is at the peak of its 11-year cycle. That means an uptick in solar flares will lead to more chances to see the northern lights over the next couple of years.

Solar material is gusting out of the dark patch in the Sun's corona towards Earth at more than a million miles per hour.
