Aurora prediction is possible but not foolproof, relying on solar activity and geomagnetic data. Space weather forecasts and apps track Kp index and solar wind for estimates, but sudden solar changes can disrupt accuracy. The most stable seasons for aurora viewing are autumn and winter (September–March in the Northern Hemisphere, March–September in the Southern Hemisphere) due to longer, darker nights. For best results, visit high-latitude spots like Iceland, Norway, or Alaska during these months, ideally around a new moon to minimize light pollution. (83 words)Related websites:
