Can you see northern lights in Niagara Falls?
The city is located inside the Auroral Oval—the area that hovers over the North Pole—which means more chances to see the Aurora Borealis.
Do the northern lights happen every night?
Fortunately, they occur frequently. The northern lights are happening 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, said photographer Chad Blakely, owner of the northern lights tour company Lights Over Lapland. But that doesn't mean they're easy to spot; you need to be at the right place at the right time.
What month is best to see the Northern Lights?
The best time to see the Northern Lights is on clear nights around midnight during the Aurora season starting at the end of August and finishing by mid-April. However, if you are at a lower latitude and there is a big solar storm, you can enjoy the Aurora even during the summer months, like June or July.
