These two videos are short and sweet. together not three minutes.

Relatively rare intensity . . . and we aren't at solar maximum yet which is anticipated to be 2025. First Impact - Level 4 was from four CMEs

"SuspiciousObserver" focuses on solar activity so has been reporting on each CME as it happens all week, and the arrival.

Wondering how far south pink skies are visible . . . apparently the Aurora has been seen in Arizona. Here in NM, there seems to be very faint lightness (could be pink) on the horizon, northward, however there is way too much light pollution, so maybe its nothing.
Only way to know is if its on the news.

This is an additional 3-4 more, for a total of six or seven CMEs . . .

SGT (Join to see) Interesting for many reason!
The magnetic shield is weakening, because of polar "wandering" so the normal activity of the sun has at this stage in the ~11 year cycle, makes the geomagnetic storms strong. So, a lot more auroras, and more that are visible further south.
Looks like the folks responsible for the grids have done a good job of . . . whatever it is that has to be done to protect the grid from from the sun's strong magnetic storm!
