<p>According to forecasters with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the storm was in the G4 class -&nbsp;the second-highest level on the scale, according to <a href="https://www.euronews.ro/articole/o-noua-aurora-boreala-vizibila-in-romania-furtuna-geomagnetica-a-fost-cauza" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Euronews Romania</a>. Because of these geomagnetic storms, such dazzling lights can be seen across much of the northern hemisphere, such as the northern half of the US, Europe, and beyond.</p>
