![]() You can see Northern lights (aka Aurora Borealis) when the solar particles penetrate the Earth’s magnetic field. However, autumn can be the best time to see the celestial display of colors, like the equinoxes in the months of March and September, as the Earth’s tilt allows these lights to be seen more clearly. The sun is the source for the appearance of the northern lights. It can happen any time of the year, regardless of the temperature. The coldest nights are not a factor that the northern lights will be visible. Alas, I missed the alert I never read the text. But I slept early to be fresh for the next day’s Sunday Service. The text read: the northern lights are out tonight. ![]() ![]() As if this was not enough, Paddy Larson sent me a text at 12:17 am and Felix Reichel at 12:22 am. It was about a seventy percent possibility of seeing the northern lights until the dawn of February 7. On the coldest night of 2021, I receive a red alert issued by AuroraWatch.ca at 11:10 pm MST on February 6. ![]()
