auroral

It sits on the southern edge of the auroral oval, which is a band hugging the northernmost latitudes where the aurora is most common.

As the days went by and the equinox drew near, auroral phenomena were with few exceptions visible on clear evenings.

During such a period auroral displays were usually of nightly occurrence.

Auroral displays were rather frequent but not very pronounced, and in most cases could only be classed as "glows."
