Hey,
I’m visiting Tallinn as a tourist, and while I was on the Skywheel, I think I might’ve seen some northern lights (but not 100% sure—it’s been a dream of mine to see them!). Is it possible to spot them here this time of year? If so, where’s the best place to check them out? I’ll be in Tallinn until Wednesday.

That’s just ligh pollution my man.
You can definitely see the Northern Lights in Estonia. Just not city centre Tallinn. Too much light pollution. But even 20km outside of Tallinn on the coast they’re visible when there’s magnetic activity.
They’ve been visible for the past three nights, so I suppose it’s possible you caught a glimpse even in Tallinn. But it isn’t obvious in the photo you posted.
that is light pollution and clouds, if im not mistaken. you can see the northen lights wghen space weather is right and only in the less habited areas
End of August to September is usually a pretty good time to spot them!
