An explosion of extreme power occured on the sun at 3:10 AM Pacific Time today. This explosion is classed as an X-17 solar flare. X-1 is the least strong of the high power flares, X-9 normally the highest on the scale.

The flare sent a coronal mass ejection directly toward earth, and its effects should be felt as early as tonight. (Tuesday, October 28) Auroras should be visible as far south the Great Plains, and possibly farther south.

Whether the CME will result in disruptions to electronic devices and power transmission facilities, or have other effects is not known. However, the earth’s magnetic field has been buffeted by solar storms in recent weeks, and it is likely that various effects will be felt.

It’s also the area where the controversial Bigfoot film was shot on Oct. 20, 1967 by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin.

Patty Rommel says, “My 12-year-old son Alex came in and said, ‘Mom, Mom, I saw Bigfoot,’ and I thought ‘That’s good, honey. Go out and play.’ And before I knew it, my 13-year-old daughter, Sara, who is very stable and very intelligent, shot out of the house to see what he was looking at.”
