>A massive solar storm that hit Earth over the weekend is intensifying, with the potential to trigger radio blackouts and strain power grids.
Officials issued a Level 3 geomagnetic storm warning on Monday, which means solar activity could disrupt GPS signals, radio communications, and electrical systems, while also making auroras visible much farther south than usual.
A geomagnetic storm is a temporary disturbance in Earth's magnetic field caused by a burst of charged particles from the Sun's outer atmosphere.
Power system disruptions are possible parts of the Midwest and Northeast, such as false alarms and systems shutdowns, triggering blackouts.
The powerful storm is also expected to create stunning northern lights across 13 US states on Monday and Tuesday.
The auroras may be visible in Washington, northern Idaho, Montana, northeast Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.
