Sirius forskole arrived at Mestersvig

At 1409 Z the C-130 Hercules from the Danish Air force landed here at Mestersvig. during the morning the weather had changed from good to worse...
We emptied the plane of 4 pallets of goods, altogether 7 tons. suddenly we were 18 people on the station.
Due to more incoming bad weather we decided to bring everything indoors and finish unpacking during the evening. This was a good move since the weather continued on a worsening course during the evening and the night. today we have -7, 20-30 knots of wind and huge quantities of snow. Later we have to clear some of the roads to get some more water. this will be interesting!

It's quite strange to have all these people here, but good to see them. the last time we saw people was on the 15th of November we a cargo plane landed and stayed here for an hour...

more news will follow...
