    3. Ok, Flockmates! Everyone run outside and let us know if you're seeing any of mother nature's light show. According to solarweather.com: "A solar wind shock wave (a coronal mass ejection hurled into space by an explosion near sunspot 134) swept past Earth on Sept 30th and triggered a moderate geomagnetic storm. One day later, on Oct. 1st, Earth entered a solar wind stream flowing from a coronal hole on the Sun. Solar wind gusts triggered a strong (G3-class) geomagnetic storm and widespread Northern Lights." The aurora borealis is being seen from the Bering Straits on down to AZ. Best, SueB
