WHEN TO SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS?
THE NORTHERN LIGHTS ONLY START THEIR SHOW WHEN THEY THINK THE TIME IS RIGHT.
Patience is a virtue, even when chasing the northern lights. To increase your chances of seeing aurorae, keep in mind that they appear most often in late autumn, winter and early spring (September to late March), and between six in the evening and one in the morning.
However, the aurora is at its best when the weather is cold and dry, usually from December onwards. If there are strong easterly winds, the coast may have clearer skies than inland areas. And to get the most out of your experience, try to avoid nights with a full moon, as a very bright moon can make the aurora less clear.
