SUNSPOT AR3691 ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE OF THE SUN, HAS DOUBLED IN ITS SIZE. THIS SUNSPOT CAN PRODUCE X-CLASS SOLAR FLARES, AND DEPENDING ON THEIR INTENSITY AND ITS POSITION FACING THE EARTH. IT CAN KNOCK OUT OUR SATELLITES AND ELECTRICAL GRIDS.

Huge sunspot AR3691 will face Earth this week.  Maybe we'll see Auroras once again?  Or its intensity will be on par of the Carrington Event of 1859.  The X-Class flares of May 2024 were half the power of the Carrington Event, thus the global power grids stayed up.  Although New Zealand took no chances, and declared an emergency when the May solar storm hit.
