About this camera
E6 Øyjord (Hålogaland bridge) is an open-licence still camera with a new image every minute in Øyjord, Narvik, Norway, run by Statens vegvesen.
Over many years, aurora shows on about 65% of clear, dark nights at this camera's magnetic latitude (66°). That is a long-term average, not a forecast: tonight's chance is next to the camera.
A small village on Lake Torneträsk inside the national park of the same name. The rain shadow of the Norwegian mountains and the Aurora Sky Station make it one of Europe's best-known aurora spots.
Near Abisko the aurora season runs from September to March, when the nights are dark enough. Polar night: The sun does not rise in Abisko from about 7 December to 5 January; in Kiruna, slightly further south, only from about 11 December to 1 January (our calculation; Visit Sweden gives a broader "early December to early January"). Midday still brings a few hours of blue twilight.
