    A Powerful Solar Storm Is Bringing Hazards and Rare Auroras Our Way

    "The big takeaway from this level of storming would be just increased chance
    of seeing the aurora, really in the upper tier of the United States," says Robert Rutledge, lead of operations at the center, which is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. (Here's an animation of the CME from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, and one from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory.)

    I've been watching that. http://www.spaceweatherlive.com

    We had an R3 level radio blackout yesterday while Irma was coming ashore. HF was pretty much useless for a large part of the day. It started improving later in the evening.

    Thanks!

    Good to hear you've also been following Solar activity .. it been crazy
    lately and kinda started after the Full Solar eclipse, also read or saw something about seismic activity in Yellowstone. It's very technical just how Solar flare activity (high energy particles) effect own planet and the
    weather. Pequito and myself where chatting on mRC last night about the
    weather and Hawk down in Florida riding out the hurricane. Then I had a
    LSD-25 flash back and was picturing the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz riding a bicycle and Caphood playing fiddle have a good old time down in the Tampa bay area (:
