The sky was briefly (somewhat) clear for a brief colorful display of the northern lights. A couple of images snapped around UTC 21.37. Details: Canon 650D / Samyang 8 mm fisheye-lens.
It finally cleared up (somewhat), but not so good conditions. It was indeed a colorful display, in between clouds, and beyond fog. However, the most interesting feature was an east-west oriented arc. It formed at about UTC 21.25 and lasted until about UTC 21.36 it was followed by an intense aurora. The arc appeared in the same loacation where I previously most often have seen/observed STEVE. Please, find timestamp on images. Photo details: Canon 650D, Samyang 8 mm fisheye-lens

There was a brief instance of auroral activity on April 21. Not easily seen or photographed because of a bright sky. Interestingly, the contrail like phenomenon STEVE was observed from about UTC 21.02 to 21.34.
