... Okay, I swear these guys in charge of reading the instruments and prediction of the physics of CME's have no clue what they are doing half the time. I just picture them standing around scratching their heads a lot.
There was literally no indication we would have any CME activity here on Earth, then boom, my little widget lights up like we got hit directly, and there are more geomagnetic storms (although only mild/moderate).
