@wx4caster_bk @NWSWichita Awesome and congratulations BDK! The following quote from Andrew Blum in The Weather Machine sums it up better than I could, “The ability to forecast the weather is among humanity’s greatest adaptations to life on earth…” it’s pretty special to be a part of that!

A Direct Hit! The impressive #solarstorm launched in the Earth-strike zone has been modeled by NASA. The storm is predicted to hit Earth by midday December 1. Along with two earlier storms already en route means we have a 1,2,3-punch. If the magnetic field is oriented correctly, expect #aurora to reach deep into mid-latitudes. Amateur #radio & #GPS reception issues are likely, especially on Earth's nightside. G3+ conditions are possible with this storm series.
