You May Experience Some "Extra" Cell Call Disruption In The US, Or AM Radio Static... Tomorrow.

Heads up. There was a mid-level solar flare / magnetic arc event on the Fifth. It should wash over most of North America during the daylight hours, tomorrow.

That may mean some static, dropped calls and some AM radio "crackling". Hopefully, not much more than that.

. . .An eruption from the sun on August 5^th is likely to come to Earth and cause a moderate (G2) disturbance in Earth’s magnetic field, a geomagnetic storm.

When will it get here? Tuesday, August 8^th after midnight EDT or around 6 a.m. UTC. . . .

There was also a more severe flare, today, on the 7^th, but it fired off-axis, away from Earth, so this should be about it, for this week, anyway. But if you intend to anything telecom or radar critical, like fly a light plane solo, tomorrow. . . you know: get real-time, expert level solar storm updates -- from NOAA, in Boulder, Colorado. Out, grinning. . . be excellent to one another.
