Sampled on the 1st of each month and on the four turning points, in 2026. Times are Tromsø local time and include the summer-time change, on the last Sunday of March and of October.
The last column is the one that matters for the northern lights: the sun more than 18° below the horizon. It is always shorter than the night, and in midsummer it is zero for weeks at a time even where the sun still sets.
Tonight's aurora verdict for this place: Clouded out — 100% cloud at best between 20:10 and 04:52.
