Much cooler air arrives... highs are only going to reach into the mid 50s for today. Also, there is a chance of showers especially the further SE you go. Another freezing night tonight, then a windy day tomorrow and it will feel quite chilly with the wind. Better have a jacket before heading out!

- Fairly active yesterday in the space weather department with two M-flares released in addition to the one from the last update, strongest of which was an M4. The source? Sunspot 1875, which is growing healthier and turned directly Earth-facing. Will have to watch for the potential of a strong flare. M-class in next 24 hours: 30%. X-class in next 24 hours: 5%.
