It might be disappointing to have not witnessed the Northern lights in their full glory but that doesn’t mean you’ve missed your chance. The best place to see them during the year is an area within a 1,550-mile radius of the North Pole. It’s important to go during times of the year when it is dark enough, not between mid-April and early August when the midnight sun is out.
You can predict a strong aurora night by counting forward 27 days from the most recent occurrence. This is because auroras are strongly associated with sunspot activity, and as it takes 27 days for the sun to rotate on its axis, that’s how long it will take for an aurora-producing sunspot to show up again.
The aurora borealis is a sight to remember and that’s why it’s on so many people’s bucket lists. People travel far and wide just to get a small glimpse of it. Once you do get a chance to see it, then you must share those pictures with us. Till then, enjoy these memes and let us know how you feel about missing out on the colorful action.
