How reliable is a weekend aurora forecast?

The NOAA-based Kp outlook covers about three days, while the live OVATION aurora map is a much shorter 30–90-minute nowcast. This page does not present today’s aurora probability as a prediction for the weekend. Cloud cover, darkness and the forecast horizon matter.

Weekend aurora forecast FAQ

What is the latest forecast for the Northern Lights in Canada this weekend?

The latest available Saturday and Sunday outlook is shown above, with local weather, modeled Viewing Scores and the last update time. If either day is outside the forecast horizon, the page says so instead of guessing.

How far ahead can the weekend aurora be predicted?

The geomagnetic Kp outlook covers about three days. The live OVATION map forecasts roughly 30–90 minutes ahead; it cannot reliably predict the auroral oval several days in advance.

Where can I get a more detailed aurora forecast?

The Aurora Alerts mobile app includes hourly forecasts, a three-day outlook, aurora maps and customizable push alerts. Longer-range outlooks are less certain.
