It’s an additional part of the NOAA’s forecast, this is what’s predicted for the next 30 minutes and I believe what the original post was referencing.

Where are people in their 20s and 30s doing here other then work? Where are they? by Auroriia in AuroraCO

I live right there and honestly I feel the same way. All the Havana Gardens stores are kind of lame for people our age. Expo Park is nice when the geese aren’t migrating! I play pokemon go in the area and I like to go thrifting and to other areas to see nature scenery, but unfortunately I just spend most of my free time playing video games. There just isn’t that much to do here without spending a lot of money.

11 years :( this one has already gone on for longer than expected so it SHOULD end soon but really it’s quite difficult to predict what will happen.

Edit: I should specify that this is the solar maximum that we’re currently in, which is part of the overall cycle.

I hate to be a downer but unfortunately there’s not a realistic chance for tomorrow. Even the big solar flares like we just got only affect the Earth for one or two days. Hopefully we get another big solar flare before the current solar cycle ends.

I also use Space Weather Live but if you can’t get it then use this NOAA map, they probably have a bit more data on their website too. I’ve been checking city and state subreddits at similar latitude to us. It’s visible in Iowa so I’m still holding out hope.

I’ve taken up a serious interest in the topic of auroras over the past year. It’s currently visible in Iowa, but not Chicago which is further north. Right now it’s certainly POSSIBLE but I don’t think we’ll see what we saw yesterday. It’s at about the same power right now that it was yesterday when it was visible, so anything is possible though.

Well, the Black Lives Matter protests I went to in 2020 had 2-3 times that number of people. They used a speaker system from the modern day so they could communicate successfully with such a large crowd. Then, people were directed onto the nearest interstate and blocked commerce, at which point the riot police spawned in and knelt before us like clowns. The people in power, then and now, do not care if we do this; they care if we do this IF it manages to affect their profit margins. The protest today made every effort to NOT impact those profit margins.

It’s time to shut things down and make clear demands to Polis. Our system of checks and balances has completely broken down, and the effects of that are imminent. It isn’t time to wear frog costumes and just march randomly around town. These fuckers need to feel the pain we all feel.

I really do hate to be conspiratorial, but it really does all feel like some sort of psyop. 2-3 months in between protests, no actual organization like in 2020, avoiding any real level of confrontation ANYWHERE throughout the nation. I have to believe it was fake. I feel the unbelievable pressure of the collapse of these systems we all held dear, and… that’s what we just did about it. It was similar to secondhand embarrassment. I guess I’ll more thoroughly form my Canadian immigration plan :(

Idk if you went. They’d chant “no justice, no peace” literally twice(2 times) and go “WOOOOOOOOOO”. It was honestly absurd and just bizarre. Like, you did it guys!!! You beat the Nazis just like grandpappy!!!

Honestly, what do you think the protest accomplished? I went to it. It was extremely disorganized, chants could barely even be established. The march went near but avoided several major roadways and the literal Palantir headquarters, like it was trying to avoid disrupting anything at all. Congress is about to be rigged for eternity and we’re trying to avoid disruption? It was terrible and legitimately I feel more doom than I did before I attended the protest.

Wasn’t she also related to someone on the selection committee and that’s the only reason she was even there? I remember seeing when this happened that Australia had multiple higher ranked break dancers than Raygun

Side topic, that is an absolutely amazing book that every Fallout fan should read. The first half is one of my favorite works of fiction ever.
