Happy Easter/Spring.

The snow is almost all gone here--and about bloddy well time, too.

And if the sky is clear tonight, we may see some of the stupendous aurora from the solar activity that's been so exciting lately. Earth has been lucky that those enormous CMEs from flares have been mostly going out to space ... so far. We may yet have a catastrophic one aimed at the earth, like the one that took down the Canadian power grid in 1989. It's been a hell of a solar spring.
