  1. You certainly can see the Northern Lights during the summer but you'd have to stay up pretty late given how long daylight is in the summer.

    Of course, you would have to be under the auroral oval to see the Northern Lights at any time. Check out the link below to learn more:

  2. a diffuse light appearing in the sky, particularly in the North and South Polar regions where it is known as the 'aurora borealis' and 'aurora australis' respectively. the lights assume a great variety of forms, and appear more frequently as arcs and 'curtains'. there is also a beautiful fan-like form known as the 'corona' or 'auroral crown'. the colour of light varies from white to red to blue and is occasionally green. it is unsteady and flickering , and sometimes sweeps swiftly across the sky in waves. some auroras can cover vast areas from horizon to horizon. displays can last a few hours or several days. it was discovered that a polar aurora occurs from 20 to 30 hours after the appearance of a 'flare' on the Sun's surface.



    they are  a natural phenomenon that occurs year round and possibly all day, including the summer, but generally cannot be seen due to the long day light hours.
