Breaking from endlessly clear
When I open Environment Canada’s app every day, and the next 7 nights show just clear with overnight temperatures somewhere in the -30s, it does feel like it’s never going to end. But I try not to take it for granted. Nothing is forever.
So after weeks of near perfect weather every night beginning from the middle of February, a few messy nights varying between partly cloudy and mostly cloudy were now on the immediate horizon.
There’s always some room for flexibility in these kinds of nights, and we took full advantage - leaving earlier or travelling out from town further. And on both nights, we were lucky to keep ourselves in good weather where we were met with beautiful, beautiful shows from the aurora. Clear skies held, and clouds held back for just long enough. It was just what we needed and it humbly felt very, very lucky.
