It looks like that site gives a lot of information about the where the Aurora itself is occurring and is forecast to be, even live satellite images.

I was hoping someone might know of a map or source about locations from where it could it be seen. The OP article mentions being able to view it from Alabama, and parts of Northern California. I'm curious about what specific areas will be able to see it.

This NOAA site seems to show the predicted "viewline" I'm looking for, but it doesn't come close to Alabama, so I'm wondering if the viewing area might extend beyond that line.
