We are into the first of seven months of the Aurora season and I am sooooo tired of bad weather ... which we have had a lot of this September ... and last night I just got little mad of myself, when I trusted the weather forecast little too much and headed too far south ... I guess it was better if I had turned right in the crossroad towards Senja ... every night is a gamble when the weather are so tricky ...

Finally a good clear night on the coast again, so I gave my guests a roundtrip around Kvaløya island for showing them some of the hightlights until the darkness cover the sky ...

An impossible job! I was planned to cancel since all of our seven forecast showed totally overcast, but when the guests still wanted to try I can`t denied them ...

I am normally not canceling a chase cause bad weather, since you never know what happens out there ... since the clouds are moving ... but this night there was not a chance ... it`s pity, since it was probably a good show at 11 pm and 00.30 am ... tonight`s activity started already at 3 pm ...
