The old Thomas Dolby song from 1982 comes to mind when reviewing the Yaslogs from our antennas. There are completely dead bands at both the KONG and Smøla HQs and at the LoranD site. The X-flare from early yesterday has certainly made an impact, with proton levels on the rise. This could potentially be the worst KONG expedition in terms of logging new stations since KONG9 in 2003.
But the sky was ablaze today, half an hour after the 15:30 sunset!
And here is how it looked from Ole's and OJ's car near Berlevåg at the same time:
Still very mild weather, up to 9 degrees Celsius today but with strong winds, up to 20 m/s or 70 km/h. The wind will increase further until around noon on Saturday, a bit of rain and a bit cooler.
So! Dinner: Fried cod loins with leftover carbonara and a bit extra bacon and ginger roots. Kim Crawford white wine was served with the cod. For dessert: Fresh cloudberries with cream and sugar (and a bit of Grappa). Excellent stuff! So to end this rather meaningless post, here is an aurora photo from tonight.
