During the day solar activity was pretty low but later in the evening it started to increase, weather was perfect and we waited 2 hours near the lake for aurora when suddenly it started to dance in green colours within minutes. We were super lucky to experience it, this is why KP index doesn’t matter when you are near Arctic Circle.
Our tour started from Rovaniemi and we drove 45 mins northwest.
Last night was also the first night with below 0 temperatures.
All next days are going to be excellent for northern lights hunting due to increased solar activity and good weather conditions.
