If you are on the hunt for the northern lights this weekend, tonight is your window of opportunity. Saturday and Sunday do not look very good as there will be clouded more or less all over Iceland but we can expect clear skies on Tuesday.

IMO builds its forecast on combined information on aurora activity, cloud cover, sunlight and moonlight.
