[HCDX]: possible visible aurora on tues nite??
This from Joe Rao at Skyway
Monthly repeats of aurora were common 11 years ago, as that particular
hotspot of old sol points this way once again....

> On Sunday, at 8:08 UT (4:08 a.m. EDT) a Class C7 solar flare was
observed
>to erupt near the center of the solar disk. The Lasco Spacecraft indicate
>that an Earth-Directed Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) also occurred in
>conjunction with this event.
>
> There is a "possibility" that this solar disturbance could induce a
>significant display of the Aurora Borealis ("Northern Lights") on Tuesday
>night, May 2. This would occur almost exactly one Carrington rotation (27.2
>days) after the major auroral display that appeared across much of North
>America on April 6.
