Northern Lights Chances
An indication, not a promise: aurora activity over this place (NOAA's OVATION model and Kp forecast) times the clear sky in the best three-hour window of the night (MET Norway), dark hours only; the window is named. The next nights rest on the Kp forecast only; the solar wind cannot be forecast that far ahead. The whole region live: our Northern Lights Forecast; every spot at once: the Northern Lights Visibility Map.

When you are on your way towards Kautokeino or Alta, Masi is a place you will pass. Maybe you are up for a stop, to grab a coffee or to buy some groceries. At this place you will find some authentic Finnmark. The small grocery store also has a cafe and a petrol station (only card payment). The cafe is the social place for the 130 people living in Masi. If you are here at the right time - you will meet some talkative locals. Or the kind shop owner will tell you how to prepare the reindeer meat you can buy from him. You will hear mostly the Sámi language. If you want to impress with some snippets of Sámi: Good day = Buorre beaivi / Thanks = Ollu giitu / Goodbye = Báze dearvan
Maybe you buy a lottery ticket, this place has produced some winners before. Once the weekly delivery van driver bought a ticket here and won a serious amount of cash. That is at least what we got told over a cup of tasty coffee today.
