Should be able to see the northern lights even where I am tonight and it just cleared off. It will get crisp out tonight as we have had snow in the not so higher elevations. Winter comes early this it I think! |

User ID: 41520215 United States10/01/2013 11:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is pretty legit, we went from K2 TO K5 in less than ten minutes on solar storm impact, that's rare, at least for this cycle. Check out the pocket of early plasma that hit us. [link to www.n3kl.org] Look at the mag spike and the electron spike, that's a big , quick hit. These guys are different than Flare induced CMEs, we may see irregular spikes for days as this big momma comes in. I'd listen to HUGH he knows his shit! “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” – Carl Sagan |

[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov] It'll be here soon, maybe your being premature? in another note, small flare starting to show on soho and stereo, but no xray data that i can see, another lift-off? |

User ID: 41520215 United States10/01/2013 11:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Its moving tad bit faster than expected, a lot of dense nucleii in this storm. You don't get large magnetic prominent eruptions on our earth ,sol footpoint often.

5 stars!
for solar info. I have been watching this one too, but you know far more than I do.
