The plot labelled as "Now" shows the present situation. The green zone (if any) indicates the auroral oval estimated by magnetometer recordings. Other plots show forecasts for which green indicates a high probability of auroras and light green refers to a smaller probability. In case of low activity, we use an empirical oval drawn with a grey colour. Cloudiness maps are based on FMI weather forecasts.

Previous new Moon: 27.04.2025 - Next full Moon: 12.05.2025
The table shows the maximum 1-min time derivative (dB/dt) of the magnetic field (north or east component) at a few magnetometer stations during the latest hour. The unit is nT/s. The activity codes are defined as follows:
0: auroras unlikely seen at the station (black dot on the first map)
1: auroras likely (red dot)
2: data missing (white dot)
They are empirically determined based on the maximum dB/dt. Sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset are given at an accuracy of a few minutes. If the Sun is shining then the auroral oval just indicates the region where increased geomagnetic activity is probable. N/A: no rise or set time. Sun above the horizon all the time: +; Sun below the horizon all the time: -.
