Aurora Borealis to be Visible in Northern Polar Latitudes

Geomagnetic Storm Forecast for Friday

Aurora Borealis Season Begins

The Aurora Borealis season in northern polar latitudes, including Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Siberia, runs from August to April. On Friday, a geomagnetic storm is forecasted due to a coronal hole in the sun's atmosphere, which means there is a high likelihood of viewing the Northern Lights.
