A solar flare may impact Earth today, causing possible outages and other disturbances. Story here:
I may be a bit crazy - but I didn't drive myself.

At least Kevin will be safe, unless some of those particles make it thru the colander holes.
I hope it doesn't cause problems with our already overtaxed power grid. I wouldn't want all of those EV driving greenie weenies to miss work tomorrow. Bob
They always say this but I have yet to see any actual disruption of services.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
You don't SEE it! Don
And thus my comment about it.

The best indicator I have about solar flares seems to affect my indoor TV antenna. I lose a lot of channels when our sun is acting up. Lately, it happens a lot!
I'm safe from solar flares; I live in a submarine next to the Titanic.

I have such a headache, I feel like my head is being sucked into the sky.
My hearing aids are picking up a morse code like messages, and 'they' are listening to my thoughts through my hearing aids.
Had a power failure this afternoon, probably not a solar flare. A primary wire broke and set the right-of-way on fire about a mile from us. Power Co. had it back on in about 1 1/2 hours. House temp went up a couple of degrees. Linemen are our heroes all year long.
IIRC, few years back someone posted a web site where you could watch activity of outer space. It was very busy and mind boggling to watch,so much activity. Very cool.
A search is not bringing up anything for me, darn it.
I got a spare sieve you can borrow.
