Been playing on HF much of the day (FT8) and relatively quickly the10m and 12m bands went silent. 15m is still going. Then I find out there’s a severe geomagnetic storm hitting earth right now. That’ll do it.
The upside is it looks like a good chance of seeing the northern lights over the northern half of the US tonight. If the storm gets worse potentially most of the US maybe be able see the northern lights tonight in places where it’s rare to see them.
