FREE • Tonight’s chance at your place, in five levels from “Very low” to “Very likely” – and every value says when it is from. • Why this verdict? Tap ⓘ: the factors behind the chance and the Kp it takes where you are. • Forecast for up to three nights: Kp, how far the aurora reaches, and the clouds when Apple Weather provides them. • Globe with a time scrubber: NOAA’s aurora oval twelve hours back and ahead, with the day and night side. For both hemispheres. • An alert for your home when the aurora activity there reaches the threshold and it is dark – with a test alert, so you know it arrives. • Red light and field mode for outside: compass and the key values, and your eyes stay adapted to the dark. • Live Activity and widgets for the Lock Screen and StandBy. • Journal with a season summary: for each place, from your own answers, how often you saw the aurora at each forecast level. • At Kp 7 or more, the storm cockpit is open for one night without Aurora Pro.
