Solar storm coming!

Forecast: Severe Space Storm Headed to Earth


Impact on the average person is negligible -- maybe some communication
disruption, though the industry has come a long way in preparing and
dealing with this kind of thing -- EXCEPT, you may get auroras.

The storm is expected to generate aurora or Northern Lights, as far
south as the northern United States Thursday night.

*flail*

I am by no means in the "northern U.S." but some of ya'll certainly
are. Check your weather forecasts and think about stepping outside for
a bit tonight :D (And I'm assuming anyone else at a similar latitude
-- hello, UK! -- could be in for a show as well.) Whee!
