Title: Stormy Monday.......
Post by: East Troy Don on October 12, 2021, 0007 UTC

Per the New York Post:

Get ready, Earthlings, the sun is expected to wreak some havoc on our planet Monday — with an enormous solar flare that could disrupt power grids, affect spacecraft and make the northern lights visible in New York.

Yeah well La Nina is back which means more excitement in the weather dept. for the NW...lots of windy storms, power outages (we get enough of them already) & supposedly Snow! Glad I don't have to drive in it nowadays! Stay tuned, ya'all.  :o

I just want these T-storms to hurry up and get outta' here. Testing out a repaired Windom and hearing like S+20/9 of lightning crashes just sucks. That, and I don't want lightning to QSL me, since ya know what happens when it really does. Now, if we can just clear all these storms out just in time to DX the Halloween pirates on MW and SW this weekend. BTW, might be a good time to cruise around any empty spots in the FM band as well. Ya never know...
