Aurora should be visible for northern half of US, may last for 3 days
http://www.gi.alaska.edu/pipermail/gse-aa/2011-August/000106.html

The effects of the solar events of the past 3 days are have been
arriving at Earth and should provide aurora viewing for the next 3
days for the northern tier states in the US, north of England,
southern Scandinavia. The skies should be dark enough at midnight
south of 60 degrees N Latitude to see this aurora. In the US, the
aurora should be visible over most of the northern hald of the nation,
if the present activity continues. Watch the short term aurora
forecast panel at http://www.gi.alaska.edu/AuroraForecast.
