Forecasts!

The MOST COMMON Aurora E-mail Questions we get everyday: "Where and/or when can I see the aurora?" The Aurora is like the weather, the Aurora is a result of space weather.

Our favorite site to see when and where the Aurora may best be seen and the predicted intensity are two links:
1.NOAA POES north polar map. 2. NOAA Space Weather Alerts

Informative reading on the aurora.
From the Exploratorium comes The Aurora Tutorial
Be sure to pick up a copy of The Aurora Watcher's Handbook by T. Neil Davis (University of Alaska Press, 1992; ISBN 0-912006-60-9).

Welcome comments, inquiries or questions... direct them to ehgroth@mtu.edu We try to keep all links alive; Links last checked on October 26, 2013
