Can Auroras be seen during Alaskas summers?
No! To view the Aurora one needs darkness-night-twilight. Alaskan summers do not allow a view into the heavens because the atmosphere is too brightly lighted by the sun. Southern Canada and the northern tier of the United States are able to see the Auroras because there still exists a darker ‘nighttime’. August through April is the best time period to view Auroras in Alaska.
