Day: November 12, 2025

Wed. Nov. 12, 2025 – CME inbound, weird lights in the sky and radio issues forecast

Cool and then warmer. Maybe not as cool as yesterday, and a bit warmer in the afternoon. Maybe not. Space weather is the big story today.

Yesterday I did my two pickups. Did some stuff around the house. Made dinner (frozen shrimp sauteed and served with Jack Daniels bacon creme sauce over bow tie pasta. Yum.) Read for a while.

Today I’ll be doing more pickups and more of the work I didn’t do yesterday. My ability to work seems to be “bursty” for lack of a better term. I used to be quick and steady.

The sun apparently spit out some cosmic loogies, and they are headed this way. Now, we’re all gonna die, eventually, except maybe SteveF, but probably not today. There might be communication impacts and might be some auroras visible in places that don’t normally get them. Keep an eye and an ear open, and if you rely on GPS or starlink, maybe make sure it’s not life or death that either keeps working. Otherwise, most of us probably won’t even know it’s happening.

You should be fully stacked to stay home a couple of days anyway, right?

Unless the invading spacecraft missiled our sun during its slingshot… in which case we’re all F’d anyway.

Still, stacks will help if there are issues, at least for a while.
