SPACE - S0 - 20201013 - Dark Nova, Scary Implications for the Sun
Good Morning, 0bservers!
Usually, solar wind charts are divided up depending on how much "swing" is on them. Sometimes the chart lines represent differences of 20, 50 or even 100 KPS. This morning? Five. Yes, the massive range on the chart goes from 275-320 KPS, and the solar winds used most of that chart for yesterday. All of that can be boiled down to one word - CALM. The temperature and particle density are similarly steady and mostly quiet. There were a few hours of magnetic instability around midday on the Phi Angle chart, but it returned to a steady state by late afternoon. The KP-Index stayed mostly in the KP-1 range, with a couple early morning KP-0 readings yesterday. The Electron Flux remains quiet, and the X-Ray Flux had a very small uptick near the middle of the Class A flare chart. The bright spots in the South have now passed the midpoint and they're already deteriorating. Not seeing any new coronal hole development on the surface. Fewer than a dozen blot echoes over the past 24 hours, with the only quake of note being a Mag 5.4 in the Socotra region. I'd never heard of that location (either?), so I checked the map, and it's in the Indian Ocean, south of Oman...
