Forecast: Today Reykjavík was cold and quiet, typical of mid-winter in Iceland. Long hours of darkness and below-freezing temperatures created crisp conditions, with partly clear skies offering decent visibility.

Comment: Another fabulous day with clear skies and no clouds. We were able to see the Northern Lights, a beautiful arch over the sky.
