STORM WARNING, CANCELED: A brief geomagnetic storm on Feb. 15th sparked by a CME impact has petered out, and the chances for auroras this weekend are subsiding. The CME appears to have been a merger of three minor clouds that, even together, could not cause a sustained disturbance in Earth's magnetic field. The hoped-for Valentine's display of auroras never materialized.

7:30 PM. The sun set 1.5 hours ago and I can see aurora clearly even though twilight doesn't end for another hour.
This place is magic.

Sounds awesome H. Its a trip I have on my bucket list as well.
what is the temperature there and is it a resort you're at? Did you have to go through a tour company?
Look forward to more pics, even with an iphone.
Cheers
