Pulsating with immediacy.

Aurora Borealis in Henningsvæ. The Lofoten Islands are much further north than Iceland, and this of course positively affects the ability to see and photograph the Northern Lights. All the number of times I've been to Lofoten, I've seen the Northern Lights every time. The Kp index is not relevant Lofoten, as Lofoten is under the "aurora oval". A high Kp index means that northern lights can be seen further south, but that's irrelevant if you are in Lofoten. Most aurora apps rely heavily on the Kp index, and are not useful. Some good northern lights info:
