Look at the magnitude of that X5.16! Small wonder then that strong showers of Solar particles have been swarming satellites post-flare:

SpaceWeather reports an on-going Ground Level Event:
A 'GROUND LEVEL EVENT' IS UNDERWAY: Yesterday's X5-class solar flare from sunspot 4274 hurled a fusillade of energetic protons toward Earth. Some of the particles are so powerful, they are penetrating the atmosphere all the way to the ground. "This is a very significant event," says Professor Clive Dyer of the Surrey Space Centre. "Neutron monitors around the world are detecting it."

I added this afterthought to Part 1:
This makes it five X-class flares since 4 November 2025. I can't help but notice that we've not had any X-class flares for months since 20 June 2025....then our Sun belches out five in a span of 8 days....soon after its rendezvous with 3I/Atlas on Perihelion 29 October 2025.
Namarie! 🩵
