Northern lights diary – October 26th 2025

Sunrise: 08:52 UTC

Sunset: 17:32 UTC

Kp : 2/9

Moon status: 21% illuminated

Forecast: Tonight we’re expecting clear skies above Reykjavik and a good aurora forecast. The temperature has dropped significantly, so we recommend putting on an extra layer of clothing!

Comment: The weather conditions were truly excellent. Surprisingly gentle winds and a starry sky. The aurora made us wait today – it was only around 10:30 p.m. that a very faint arc appeared above Mount Esja. With time, it grew stronger, transforming into moving curtains. We extended the tour by half an hour so that everyone could enjoy the slightly delayed show.
