SPACE - S0 - 20201104 - The Next End Of The World
Good Morning, 0bservers!
More weird data dropouts in the charts this morning, but we did get some numbers when they came back online around 0400 UTC. There was a low of nearly 280 KPS, with a brief spike to 370 KPS, but it's looking to be in the 290-320 KPS range. Density, Temperature, and Phi Angle all seem to be steady, despite the wiggliness (yes, that IS a scientific term) of the chart readings. The KP-Index stayed in the KP-0 to KP-1 range pretty much all through yesterday and this morning, with only a single KP-2 late the previous night. Electron Flux readings remain in beneath the threshold. The X-Ray Flux, however, remained active with a number of small spikes just barely into the Class C flare range, with the background radiation staying in mid-Class B. Those spikes appear to be caused by the incoming sunspot groups, with a small blowout in the South, followed by a larger blowout in the North (the one closer to the midpoint). I didn't see any ejecta from them on the images, so these might be intra-atmospheric expulsions. Coronal holes are marching across the middle now, including some scattered holes in the equatorial and low latitude range.
