Major Solar Storm

The largest solar storm since 2005 is anticipated to hit earth around 1400UTC (6am pst)tomorrow. Anticipate minor loss of radio and GPS on the sunlight side of the planet, and if the weather holds some really awesome auroras on the night side, possibly continuing into tomorrow evening.

  2. That's because we live in Seattle. Nice nimbostratus, though.
