Yet another Space Weather note and how Space Weather and radio are intersecting yet again - yesterday & today! Yesterday Thomas Ashcraft - mentioned recently in this post - recorded the outbursts.
INTENSE SOLAR RADIO BURSTS: Big sunspot AR2740 is turning toward Earth and emitting loud bursts of shortwave radio static. A remarkable outburst yesterday was rare in both its form and intensity, exceeding even what observers have detected during Solar Maximum "
" UPDATE: Rob Stammes of Lofoten, Norway, has detected even more bursts on May 7th. The sun continues to be "radio-active."
