    Aurora sighting.

    There will be a big chance for seeing the aurora in the coming days. A solar storm is heading our way.

    Don’t know, but it was mentioned in the Danish news media. They said it could be seen in Denmark.

    There was a huge Solar Flare on the 15th......and the Sun spot number is the highest in numerous years....check out www.spaceweather.com

    Now if that would only translate to radio wave propagation.........I am going to start bringing my portable Amateur Radio (HF) to work again.
