You’ll hear people say, “The aurora is unpredictable.” That’s true, but it’s also predictable enough. Like rain in spring, you can’t schedule it perfectly, but you can feel when it’s coming. Trust your instincts and the data. If the forecast says “high activity” and the sky is clear, go outside. No excuses.
Tonight, before you scroll mindlessly, step onto your porch. Breathe the cold air. Look north. Even if you don’t see the lights, you’ll have stolen a quiet moment from your busy day. And who knows? The universe might just surprise you. The best time is right now.
