“Spectacular Northern Lights Dazzle Southern Norway for the Second Night in a Row 🌌✨”
For the second night in a row, the skies over Southern Norway have come alive with a stunning display of the Northern Lights, offering residents and photographers a rare opportunity to witness this natural wonder. From Bærum to Bergen, Oslo to Trøndelag, vibrant hues of green, pink, and purple danced across the night sky, delighting onlookers. Steffen H. Greff, who captured photos in Bærum while walking his dog, described the experience as “fantastic,” sharing his awe at seeing such clear and colorful auroras in the Oslo region.
Northern Lights expert Brekke, from the Norwegian Space Center, predicts that the light show may continue through the weekend. He advises hopeful viewers to venture out between 10 PM and 2 AM for the best chance to see the auroras in full glory. For those eager to catch a glimpse of the celestial display, Brekke stresses the importance of finding areas with minimal light pollution. “Move away from city lights—street lamps and even porch lights can hinder your view. Head into the woods, open fields, or by the sea for the best experience,” he suggests.
With images pouring in from various locations, including Kongsberg, Fetsund, and even Oslo, it’s clear that this aurora spectacle is captivating viewers across the country. The Northern Lights are a rare treat for Southern Norway, making this a truly special weekend for skywatchers.
