Yesterdays X flare and full halo CME may have come from a terrible location but I think it may be more potent than the G1 noaa is calling for. I'm thinking maybe G3?
With lime.
Bt is a bit lower than I was thinking... 30nt is nice but was really hoping for 40-50.
Maybe the jittery data is from the other CME's that were swept up ahead of the main show. Ideally things will stabilize as we get a little more into the meat of the cloud.
Finally... a long X-flare from a near perfect location has sent an absolutely fantastic looking halo CME towards us. This one could be corona inducing for sure.
Absolutely the most bonkers real-time lightning video ever. Would proudly shit my pants for the experience.
This is like condensing the last 20 years of observed lightning into 1 square mile over 2.5 minutes.
There is currently some decent lightning low on the horizon off to the north. Was pretty surprised to see the nearest convection was waaaaay the hell up by Pittsburg.
Just enjoyed about 3 minutes of very frequent in-cloud lighting on that line of storms to the north that will not affect me at all. Seems to have fizzled already.
Hrm, I feel a bit stupid because I swear when I first heard about them I thought their range was the entire east coast. But every range map quite clearly indicates I'm extremely wrong. Haha.
