Northern Lights in Summer? | Rare Kp6 Display Finland

Summer Aurora Timelapse — Lake Savojärvi, Kurjenrahka National Park, Finland Captured after midnight on August 9, 2026 A moderate Kp6 geomagnetic storm brought the aurora borealis this far south — and this early in the season. Late-summer skies in southern Finland rarely produce displays this strong; this is essentially a "summer aurora," a rare treat before the long dark season even begins. Green bands build steadily over Lake Savojärvi from ~01:20, shifting into subtle purple/magenta hues around 01:46, framed by a silhouetted tree and lakeside boulder for depth and scale. Timestamps: 00:00 — Subtle beginning 01:20 — Aurora intensity builds, green bands strengthen 01:46 — Subtle purple/magenta shift within the green 02:24 — Tree silhouette frames the brightened horizon 📍 Location: Lake Savojärvi, Kurjenrahka National Park, Finland 📅 Date: August 9, 2026 (Kp6 geomagnetic storm, after midnight) 🎥 Gear: Sony A7R V + Sigma 14 mm f/1.4 DG DN Art Sony A7 IV + Sigma 35 mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Sony A7S III + Sigma 20 mm f/1.4 DG DN Art 🎵 Music: Hanna Lindgren - Epic Mirage Want the real-time version of this same night?
