Default Northern Lights

A friend of mine is planning a cruise around the Norway Russian border and
has asked when would be the best time to go in order to have the best

chance
of seeing the Northern Lights. Bearing in mind that the cruise would have

to
be booked some months in advance. Does anyone have any idea of a website
that would show this type of information. ?

Thanks,

Jim


Jim, when I went to Finland at the end of February last year I was told it
was an ideal time to see them, and it proved correct with several excellent
displays. http://www.pfrr.alaska.edu/aurora/faq.htm#season appears to
confirm this.
