It looks like the major to severe geomagnetic storming that I forecasted began
at approximately 1800 UTC today. It was preceeded at approximately 1600 UTC by
another huge X1 class solar flare and day side HF blackout, plus the beginning
of elevated energetic proton event >10 Mev (10+o).
Unfortunately we will be experiencing prolonged episodes of geomagnetic
storming during the upcoming week. Just in time to ruin the testing of my new
160-10 meter inverted L project.
