In other news, we had a Moderate flare earlier this afternoon that may develop some CMEs, still waiting to hear about that. I got the alert on my phone as I was delivering sandwiches in the midst of Shopping Saturday or whatever we’re in right now- I live with one foot mapping the ultra verse and the other attempting to find the address of someone who wants a pizza. It’s an odd existence.
Keeping an eye on the SWPC homepage is a great way to stay abreast of these news flashes- in the meantime, here’s the announcement in screenshot format. And of course the web link if you want to read for yourself. https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/…/r2-moderate-flare-event…
