Forecast: Fully clear skies and a KP index of 2 is forecasted in the area of Reykjavik, tonight´s tour is on!

The auroras did not appear as predicted. However, unlike the previous night, when the sky was completely cloudy and not even the stars were visible, tonight there was some visibility and patches of cloud-free sky appeared. This gave us greater hope of seeing them better. We stayed out at sea as long as we could and managed to capture a little green aurora, but not as much as we would have liked. But hey, don´t forget it´s nature!
