Aurora Alert informs you immediately via APP and PWA
This season, there are several new, unique features which are available only in Aurora Alert Realtime.
Aurora Alert Realtime sends you alert every time when Auroras intensity increases. This way you can be sure that you will be alerted when the best and strongest Auroras are visible.
PreAlert feature gives an alert when the Auroras are in the sky but are not yet visible to the naked eye.
Furthermore, Night Vision let you see throught the darkness. You can reliably detect what the cloud situation is at that particular moment.
“An image says more than a thousand words”.
Aurora Alert Realtime uses the latest and most sensitive cameras to provide you with the most reliable and the best aurora alert system.
Professional-level lenses enable the widest possible viewing angle.
The images in Apps are updated automatically without constant manual updating of the page.
In Apps, you can see the locations of the different cameras on the map and you can turn on the alarm from the area you want.

Aurora and weather forecasts
In the Aurora forecast bigger number means stronger Auroras. If there are values in parentheses, they indicate the intensity of the geomagnetic storm.
The most important thing in the weather forecast is cloud situation. If sky is clear, you can see Auroras if they appears.
If it is partly cloudy, there is still good chance to see Auroras. If it is raining or snowing, it is difficult to see Auroras.
Remember, the forecast are only forecast and the actual situation may be different.
Finally, Aurora Alert Realtime alerts, when Auroras are visible.
