Geomagnetic Storm Could Hit This Week: When To See the Northern Lights
NOAA classifies geomagnetic storms on a scale of G1 (minor) to G5 (extreme), with G5 being the most powerful and least common. The G5 storm that was seen in May this year was the first of its kind since 2003, and resulted in aurorae being seen across all 50 U.S. states.
