We’re by no means done until Friday when we enter a new calmer time harmonic.

(1651 UT), sunspot AR3664 unleashed the strongest solar flare of the current solar cycle–an X8.7-category blast from beyond the sun’s western limb. X marks the spot in this image from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory:
Because the sunspot is behind the edge of the solar disk, the flare was partially eclipsed. It was probably even stronger than it appeared. “X8.7″ is almost certainly an underestimate of the flare’s true strength.
Extreme ultraviolet radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth’s atmosphere, causing a deep shortwave radio blackout over the Americas. Ham radio operators, aviators and mariners may have noticed a sudden loss of signal at all frequencies below 30 MHz. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text

AURORAS OVER THE GRAND CANYON: You know a solar storm is big when … it produces auroras over the Grand Canyon. Brian A. Klimowski photographed the rare display on May 11, 2024:
“This was just the afterglow of a more intense G5 storm on May 10th, but still so beautiful over the Canyon!” says Klimowski .
Geologists say that the Colorado River has been carving the Grand Canyon for 5 or 6 million years. No one knows how often auroras have been seen during that time. This is what we do know: The auroras of May 10-11, 2024, were among the most widespread of the past 500 years. (Synced with the epic time movement in the Harmonic.) We will be writing a story about that in a few days. Meanwhile, browse the gallery for more.
