Details:
Tomorrow it will be the last night with astronomical darkness here in Östersund, Sweden (63°N).
It's always with mixed emotions I see the nights gets shorter and brighter. One part of me will miss the stars and the auroras, but another part of me really loves the bright summer nights.
Last night I was out on the ice of lake Storsjön and it was a fantastic night. No wind at all and a couple of degrees Celsius below zero. There was a faint aurora to the north just below the Milky Way and to the north west I could see planet Venus below the Pleiades.
I will really miss nights like this until they return in early September.
