22/6-15

Position: 82° 33.33' N, 11° 55.9' W, temperature +1 °C, air pressure 1021 hPa, wind 8 knots from the N. Ice drift 0.15 towards SE. The wide lead behind the hovercraft started closing in the early morning and the hovercraft was moved 30 into the floe and parked for the night. The weather station mast fell over as the pegs for the guide wires had melted out. Moved both the weather station and the radiation flux instrument mast to the floe where all our cargo is assembled, and aligned the sensors with the North-direction. Orientation of the sun-time sensor was corrected. Initiated data logging.
