Aurora Activity Expected to Increase Due to Weaknesses in Earth's Magnetic Field
Holes in Earth's Magnetic Shield Allow for Increased Aurora Activity
Best Time to View the Northern Lights
According to recent observations, weaknesses in Earth's magnetic field are providing a path for more frequent and intense aurora borealis, or northern lights, displays throughout the globe. This phenomenon is most likely to occur during the equinox months of September and March, as well as the winter months of October through February.
Solar eruptions are releasing a stream of particles towards Earth, creating spectacular auroras in both the northern and southern hemispheres. If you're planning an aurora-viewing trip, the best time to do so is during the winter months, when the chances of witnessing these celestial lights are highest.
