11/10/2024

The Solar Storm hit, and it is still ongoing, also noting that a crack has opened up in the Earth's magnetic field, with supercharged electrons bouncing around all over the place  Which could knock out the electrical grids and satellites, if this storm continues into the extreme category. 

And yes, I got to see the auroras, in an inner city suburb early morning:  chiasmusmagazine.blogspot.com/2024/10/yes-i-got-see-australis-borealis-from.html
