We had an X-9.1 flare yesterday, the strongest yet of this current Solar Cycle and the biggest flare since 2017! I wanted to post this earlier but my internet service was down....oh the irony of it 😆
Look at that fabulous image above! This one is hot on the heels of the X7.1 that sparked off this very active month of October. SpaceWeather has more about the two resulting CMEs heading our way. Imagine how stunning the Aurora Borealis displays will be over the weekend....

The predicted CMEs arriving over the weekend, with the latter one much more potent than the first (watch video here):

When I posted about the X7.1 on 1 October, I did wonder if we would be getting another X-class flare in the same month, because the sense is that we've come into a very powerful period leading towards the end of 2024. Well yes, it's been "powerful" for quite a long while now but you know what I mean ~ we'll have to recalibrate our measurement for "powerful" every few months or so 😄
Namarie! 💜
