My Way News - Misbehaving sun delays space station supply flight
My Way News reports: "The solar flare peaked Tuesday afternoon and more activity was
expected, but the company determined that the space weather was within
acceptable risk levels. The sun is at the peak of a weak 11-year storm
cycle. Although the solar storm barely rated moderate, some passenger jets were being diverted from the poles to avoid potential communication and health issues. GPS devices also were at risk."
My Way News - Northern lights may expand south next couple days
My Way News reports: "Federal space weather forecaster Joe Kunches said the sun shot out a
strong solar flare late Tuesday, which should arrive at Earth early
Thursday. It should shake up Earth's magnetic field and expand the
Aurora Borealis south, possibly as far south as Colorado and central
Illinois. He said best viewing would probably be Thursday evening,
weather permitting."
