The 10 day forecast in Texas is fairly steady except for a little cool front bringing in a slight possibility for rain (yeehaw!) on Thursday.

I’ll go out and take a gander at the northern sky tonight. Clear skies here in Michigan tonight.

At least it doesn’t seem to be a Carrington event — as evidenced by the fact that FR is still up and running!

Update #1: Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab say the CME impact caused a strong compression of Earth's magnetic field, allowing the solar wind to penetrate all the way down to geosyncronous orbit for a brief period between 19:06 UT and 19:11 UT. Earth-orbiting spacecraft could have been directly exposed to solar wind plasma during that time.
Update #2: Strong ground currents have been detected in Norway.

I’ve lived at the 45th parallel my entire life and never seen an aurora. Of course >320 days of cloud per year doesn’t give us many chances.

I wondered what hit me around 2 pm. I felt like I was run over by a truck!
