The Northern Lights are set to make another appearance over the next few days, bathing the sky over the U.S.-Canadian border in a beautiful display of colour. Here's how you can view the aurora borealis' amazing natural light show.

CHICAGO - Chicagoland may get another rare opportunity to witness the northern lights this week, thanks to a solar storm that could push the aurora borealis further south than usual.
