FAQ
What Kp index do I need to see the northern lights in Syöte?
In Syöte, you usually need at least Kp 2 to have a reasonable chance of seeing the northern lights. Lower Kp can still bring a faint aurora display low on the northern horizon, but it is less common.
This is based on magnetic latitude, and Kp index is a global geomagnetic index, so treat it as a rule of thumb, not a location-specific guarantee.
Tonight, the NOAA Kp index forecast is 4.0 to 5.7. You should have a good chance of seeing the aurora if the sky is clear.
