Original Note:
Aurora activity peaks every 11 years or so in line with the solar cycle. There is a lot of solar activity now coupled with access to digital cameras and phones which are more sensitive to capturing the light. This coupled with social media has made people more aware of auroras. https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/solar-cycles/en/
