Why Now Is the Best Time to See the Northern Lights

Experts Predict an Exceptional Aurora Season

The Northern Lights are tied to solar activity, which peaks during the solar maximum, an event that happens roughly every 11 years. Since the sun has been gaining energy since the last solar minimum in 2019, experts are expecting some of the best aurora displays in recent years. With the solar cycle expected to reach its highest point in 2025, there’s no better time to witness the Northern Lights than now.

As the sun’s activity intensifies, so does the likelihood of stunning auroras. Over the next few years, the Northern Lights will be more vibrant and frequent, making it an exciting period for aurora seekers.

The Solar Cycle and Aurora Visibility

The solar cycle affects the frequency and intensity of sunspots, which in turn impacts the aurora displays visible on Earth. During periods of heightened solar activity, the auroras become more dazzling, often lighting up the sky with vibrant colors. This heightened period of solar activity means aurora sightings in Lapland are expected to be exceptional in the years leading up to 2025.
