The one state where you can see the Northern Lights easily is Alaska. On very rare occasion, the Northern Lights can be seen as far south as St. Louis, but generally speaking, it is unusual to see them much south of Central Canada. I live in southern Michigan, am in my 60s, and I have seen the Northern Lights here exactly twice in my life. That depends on the space weather affecting our planet. This changes the latitude at which the lights may be seen and therefore the states it can be seen from.


When are the northern lights visable in Alaska?

The northern lights, or aurora borealis, are typically visible in Alaska from late August to mid-April, with peak viewing occurring during the winter months when nights are longest and darkest. The best chances for sightings are often on clear, cold nights away from city lights. Locations like Fairbanks and Anchorage are popular for aurora viewing due to their accessibility and favorable conditions.
