Northern Lights will also be visible tonight after clearly appearing last night
Aurora borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, were clearly visible in the Netherlands on Friday evening and early Saturday morning. The Northern Lights were clearly visible, even in places with significant ambient light, such as Amsterdam.
The Northern Lights may be visible again on Saturday night and Sunday morning. A series of solar flares reached Earth and were set to arrive again. However, Weeronline predicted the phenomenon will be less intense than the previous night.
Many people posted beautiful photos and videos of the phenomenon on social media on Saturday morning. There should again be favorable weather conditions with clear skies at night, Weeronline said.
One issue is also that the skies get dark later, and the dawn arrives earlier during this time of the year. The first morning light begins to arrive around 4 a.m.
The Northern Lights were also clearly visible in the Netherlands this year in March and mid-April. During that time, the purple hues hung over the Wadden Island area and over some places in Drenthe. Last November, the Northern Lights were also very visible in various places in the country.
