Best Answer

It depends on whether you're in the Northern Hemisphere or the Southern Hemisphere. There are two different names for the Auroras.

Here they are:

1) Northern Hemisphere, Aurora Borealis

2) Southern Hemisphere, Aurora Australis

The farther north you go, the more often these beautiful phenomena occur.

I live in Minnesota, so I have to check the news or meteorologists to see the

rate of occurrence.

Hope this was helpful. Bye!
