Aurora Admin - Aurora Forecasting

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Josh, and I built Aurora Admin because I was tired of missing northern lights displays. I spent years in an aurora chasing group chat where we tried to figure everything out the hard way. In this small group, we kept refreshing charts, comparing numbers, and hoping we guessed the timing right. Traditional forecasts rely on data that is already three hours old. By the time they say conditions are active, the show is already finished. I used to work as an instrumentation technician, so I knew there had to be a better way. I built an algorithm that uses real-time solar wind data instead of looking at historical averages. What does that mean for you? You get an SMS alert about thirty to sixty minutes before the aurora appears. The best part is that it often works in places people never expect to see the lights. I have spent many late nights watching aurora cams and social feeds to confirm accuracy. Not to mention going out and field testing this. The most rewarding moments are when someone sends their first aurora photo and tells me they finally saw the lights. Happy to answer any questions or hear your thoughts.
