During the ongoing geomagnetic storm, Jamaica experienced a island wide blackout lasting about an hour but could happen again. https://t.co/Rqs5EoHfCF
Magnetic fluctuations are strongest in higher latitude regions but Caribbean nations are often hit hard with power outages.
The real Sangreal isn’t a cup you find.
It’s the owl sitting within it: crowned in wisdom, 👁️ in heart, talons in earth.
Knowledge is sacred.
Wisdom is chosen.

TGIF for those who celebrate 💚
Today all we have to do is piece this roof back together where the chimney we took down used to be.
If you’re scared of heights don’t watch as we are 35ft up with no f@cks to give 😎

Day 253 loading.
Chimney is down so let’s finish off our foundation plates before we spend the afternoon packing all those bricks out to the truck 😅
It’s gunna be a long day today I can already tell…
Live in 5 💚
The Sun’s Interior Is Changing Rapidly
Scientists have found evidence that the Sun is changing rapidly in the layers just beneath its surface. They used almost 40 years of data from the Birmingham Solar-Oscillations Network, which tracks sound waves ringing through the Sun, and compared them with standard solar activity measures such as sunspots and radio emission. The current solar cycle, number 25, is weaker than cycles 22 and 23 in those surface activity measures – but in the Sun’s high-frequency sound waves it looks just as strong.
The researchers argue that this means the structural changes linked to recent solar cycles have become increasingly confined to the outermost layers, roughly the top 1,000 kilometres of the Sun. This does not mean the Sun is about to do anything dramatic, but it suggests that its magnetic cycle is changing in a way that ordinary surface observations do not fully reveal.
