Today at 6:41 PM
Eastern Daylight Time
Active Region 2192
on the surface of the Sun
erupted with another
X-Class flare
directed towards Earth.
Registering at level X1
it was weaker than
Friday's X3 flare.
Blackouts were reported
but there were no
coronal mass ejections
(or CMEs
for those in the know).
However Fox News
is now on alert
with their ongoing coverage
under the aforementioned
(and very subtle
as is their way)
"Blackout" name
as they believe Obama
is making a last-ditch effort
to usher in the Age of Aquarius
and bypassing Congress
to get it.
They are wrong
but kudos to them
for the suggestion
as such a plan would likely
be more effective.
