The northern lights, or aurora borealis, typically occur between 65 and 72 degrees latitude in the polar regions, but they can sometimes be seen as far south as 40 degrees latitude during strong solar storms. The phenomenon primarily occurs within the auroral oval, which can expand and contract based on solar activity. Thus, while they are most commonly visible near the Arctic Circle, exceptional displays can reach much further south.
