Tips for Aurora Hunting
1
Escape the Light Pollution
The northern lights are easiest to spot from dark locations. Head away from city centres and streetlights.
2
Check the Weather
Clear skies are essential. We fetch live cloud cover data from Yr automatically for you.
3
Be Patient
The aurora can appear suddenly and vanish just as fast. Plan to be outside for at least 2-3 hours for the best chance of a display.
4
Dress Warmly
Aurora hunting often means freezing winter nights. Layer up with wool, bring warm drinks, and wear insulated boots.
