    Northern Lights in Vancouver

    A huge explosion phenomenon on the surface of the sun called "solar flare" occurred six times from May 8 to 10, and there are concerns about its effects, but Vancouver, Canada was able to see the aurora borealis, which is a rarity.
    Vancouver's latitude is 49.29 degrees north, which is farther north than Japan's northernmost point of 45.33 degrees. Even so, it is much further south than the Aurora Belt (65-70 degrees north latitude) where the Northern Lights often appear, so it is rare to see the Aurora Borealis. I have never seen them in the 20 years I have lived here.

    The photo was taken by my daughter at Sunset Beach downtown after 11 pm. Even in Yellowknife and Whitehorse, which are located in the Aurora Belt, the probability of seeing auroras mixed with colors other than green like this is quite low. The timing was perfect as the sunset time in Vancouver is around 9 p.m. at this time of the year.

    In Canada and the United States, the Northern Lights are generally referred to as Northern Lights. These are northern lights, or northern lights on the north pole side. The aurora on the Antarctic side is called southern lights.
