As the best viewing for the northern lights will occur Friday night, the northern lights will be seen in the Northeast first and then become visible farther west. There will be some hurdles present for some hopeful viewers, however.
When To See Them. Unfortunately, the best time to witness the Northern Lights is in the dead of winter, from 11:30 p.m. to 3:30 a.m., with peaks around 1:30 or 2:30 a.m. However, some say you can catch a brief glimpse of the Northern Lights 240 nights a year, especially during March, September and October. Your best hope is for a clear, cloudless night. Other ideal times include the equinoxes around September 22 and March 22.
