Possible G3 geomagnetic storm on 10/30 due to the CME from the flare, with residual G1-G2 levels persisting through 10/31.

SUN DAY Halloween solar flare headed for Earth could trigger Northern Lights this weekend – and disrupt power grid?      https://www.the-sun.com/news/3957750/halloween-solar-flare-headed-earth-power-grid/      Yeah... I had this posted in WEATHER just minutes before, but moved this up here when I'd seen the preceding posts. (My bad...)

I noticed a definite dip on MW recently, without looking at  the Solar pages. Lots of stuff missing.   I figured we got hit
