As of approximately 1710 UTC today we are experiencing a new huge X8+
class solar flare and associated shortwave blackout on the sun light side of
Earth centered on the America's. D layer absorption is impacting as high as
30,000 KC and climbing rapidly. I was listening to the BBC on 21470 kc when
it abruptly disappeared!
Also a new elevated energetic proton level of >10 MeV (10+o) has begun,
which is a tip of that another geo-effective (Earth Facing) Coronal Mass
Ejection (CME) is on the way and probably renewed geomagnetic storming.
We in Florida also continue to watch a developing subtropical storm east
of
the state. It could reach sub or tropical storm Odette status as it crosses
the central
peninsula in 36-42 hours, from say a Ft. Pierce to Tampa Bay line.
