It looks like our long run of good 160 propagation conditions is coming to an
end, courtesy of an X class flare currently in progress, in association with
sunspot group #10564 located at N15E00. This sunspot group is in geoeffective
(Earth facing) position, therefore if a Coronal Mass Ejection is involved we
will see a return to possible major geomagnetic storming.
