A chilly morning leading to a cool, blustery day. Mostly sunny with highs in the lower 50s with winds from the W at 10-15 mph with higher gusts.
- Francisco is a tropical storm and recurving just before reaching Japan.
- Super Typhoon Lekima, is strong but fortunately will dodge Japan.
- Raymond is moving away from the Mexican coast, now weakened to a tropical storm and heading out to sea.
- Lorenzo in the Atlantic down to a depression.
- There were no earthquakes rated at or above M6 yesterday or so far today.
- Space weather has become more active. We've had 5 M-class flares since the start of yesterday, including 2 this morning. The strongest hit was last night when Sunspot 1877 released a near X-class flare, a M-9 to be exact. This is the most active the sun has been since I started doing these updates. NASA ENLIL SPIRAL is showing a large CME impact around the 26th. A geomagnetic storm could be in the offing. Watching out for additional flares... M-flare chances: 40%, X-flare chances: 5%.
