While the sight is cool, the reason that we are seeing northern lights at these latitudes is not. The magnetosphere has been declining, some scientists say at an exponential rate. What that means is more particles from solar flares and coronal mass ejections are making it into our atmosphere. And add to that the increase in geomagnetic storms the earth has been experiencing.

I don't think what we see is actually what they are saying
